SEMA Exposes Some Of The Hype About Hydrogen Electric Hyperion HP-1
Hypercar
What would anyone say about an electric-motor powered, all-wheel drive
mobility device that is able to receive a recharge in 3-5 minutes? Probably
that one suspects they are being hyped!
Not hype ... and this is only the beginning of the items of note that are the
most interesting talking-point dynamics of the HP-1 Hypercar produced by
Hyperion, Inc.. A company first founded in 2011 in Columbus, Ohio that now
sports a California dreamin' office located in Orange, California.

Beyond the easily manageable recharge downtimes, this beautiful, stunning, and
soon to be available Hypercar also boasts additional "HYPES" like an
acceleration from 0-60mph in 2.25 seconds, a top speed of 221 mph supplied
through 2,038HP power-plant. This is only the beginning.
A most interesting element that is at the base of this first effort by
Hyperion, Inc. is the XP-1 SURFBOARD.
Hyperion developed an all-in-one ‘surf-board’ platform that combines its
high-power fuel cell engine module with a revolutionary hydrogen storage
technology from NASA that stores more hydrogen in less space than ever before.
This variable-vehicle technology (VVT) chassis comes with multiple motor
configurations and can be used for a wide-variety of vehicle architectures
from passenger cars to commercial vehicles.
Yes, this SPACESHIP INSPIRED Hypercar boasts a 1,000 mile range. It isn't suspected that all of the 1K miles can be travelled at the maximum speed of 221mph. Image Credit: Edmund Jenks (2022) |

The scheduled Global Launch + Auto Show Debut is in the calendar to happen at
the press day for the Los Angeles Auto Show for 2022 - AutoMobility LA on
November 17, 2022 at just after 4:20pm PT in the South Hall of the Los Angeles
Convention Center.
Hyperion has placed the hype in Hypercar with the introduction of the space
technology infused HP-1.
