Extending their ten-year collaboration, the BMW Group and Toyota Motor Corporation aim to advance hydrogen mobility by bringing a new generation of fuel cell electric cars (FCEVs) to the market. In an effort to provide customers more all-electric solutions with zero local emissions and to share their commitment to carbon neutrality, both manufacturers are working together to develop cutting-edge hydrogen fuel cell powertrain systems.
BMW plans to put its first FCEV into series production in 2028, which will be a big step forward for the auto industry. Both companies will be able to benefit from their combined experience and resources thanks to this relationship with Toyota, which will lower costs and make hydrogen-powered vehicles more accessible to a wider audience.
The Chairman of BMW AG’s Board of Management, Oliver Zipse, emphasized the importance of this development. Our first-ever mass-produced fuel cell vehicle marks a significant milestone in the history of automobiles. With its hydrogen engine and Toyota partnership, this car will usher in a new era of emission-free transportation.
Because of the partnership between BMW and Toyota, the hydrogen economy is set to change. In addition to producing cars, the two companies are committed to building a sustainable hydrogen supply chain and encouraging the expansion of hydrogen filling stations. Along with battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and other environmentally friendly technology, they believe that this relationship will be crucial to establishing hydrogen as a viable energy source in the future.
