A French manufacturer and "CleanTech" of mobility, Hopium brings together a team of experts at the cutting edge of innovation in the hydrogen fuel cell sector to meet the challenges of the energy transition.

Born to innovate

The Hopium story is a saga rooted in passion and daring.

Created in 2019, Hopium was founded by racing driver Olivier Lombard, winner of the 2011 Le Mans 24-hour race and the world's most experienced hydrogen racer.

At the outset, the ambition was simple: to rethink the future of mobility by offering innovative alternatives to traditional modes of transport. Guided by this vision, Hopium set out on a journey into the unknown, ready to defy convention and push back the boundaries of innovation. The early years were marked by a series of successes, but also challenges. Armed with steely determination and growing expertise, we developed our first prototypes, exploring new technologies and pushing the boundaries of what was possible. However, it wasn't until we embraced the challenge of sustainability that our true essence emerged. Aware of the urgency of climate change, we decided to place this issue at the heart of our mission. That's how our commitment to clean technologies became the driving force behind our growth and innovation.

Reinventing ourselves

Failure has never been an obstacle for us, but rather an opportunity for reinvention.

We have learned from our mistakes, adapted and evolved with our vision, constantly guided by our passion for innovation and our commitment to a more responsible future. Today, Hopium embodies know-how through a community of engineers, creators and enthusiasts, united by a common vision. Our history is not yet written, but it is shaped by our core values: expertise, audacity, humility and a sense of community. Guided by these principles, we are ready to pursue our quest for innovation, determined to leave a positive mark on the world around us.

Boldness in the service of the collective

In the Hopium world, every innovation we introduce is the fruit of meticulous expertise, forged by a dedicated team.

Boldness is our driving force, propelling Hopium towards new horizons. Every project, every idea is shaped by a visionary spirit that refuses to submit to the constraints of the status quo. It's this boldness that drives us to turn dreams into reality, to defy the impossible, and to blaze our own trail in the world of transportation. Yet behind our boldness lies a humble recognition of our place in a larger world. We know that we are only links in a larger chain, and it is with humility that we welcome every challenge and every success. We learn from our mistakes, listen carefully and grow together, recognizing that every contribution is essential to our collective success. The collective is at the heart of everything we do.

We're a family, united by a common passion and a shared vision. Each member of our team brings his or her own expertise and perspective, enriching our collective approach. Together, we're stronger, more creative and more resilient, ready to take on any challenge that comes our way. At Hopium, we believe in expertise, audacity, humility and the strength of the collective. These are the values that guide our every action, define our identity and inspire us to push back the frontiers of innovation.
