Hyundai has used its hydrogen-powered ix35 to grow plants and power an aquarium as part of a London-based art project. The car is being used to power an aquaponics ecosystem, which has resulted in food being grown on the mocked-up farm. The manufacturer will soon be starting trials of its hydrogen-powered ix35 in London.
