BMW has revealed plans to include a hydrogen-powered vehicle in its lineup by 2028, with Toyota as its partner in developing an advanced powertrain. Unlike traditional battery-electric vehicles, this new hydrogen-electric model will rely on a fuel cell stack for energy, complemented by a battery for high-load situations. The collaboration between BMW and Toyota, which have been experimenting with hydrogen technology, aims to offer consumers a broader array of powertrain options, including gas, plug-in hybrids, battery-electric, and now hydrogen-electric vehicles. While electric vehicles face challenges due to the lack of charging infrastructure, hydrogen infrastructure is even scarcer. BMW and Toyota are investing in hydrogen-electric passenger vehicles to stimulate demand and address this issue. Furthermore, the companies are partnering with energy firms to promote low-carbon hydrogen production. Additionally, there are plans to explore hydrogen-powered internal-combustion engines, notably for motorsports applications, to leverage the zero carbon emissions and address nitrogen oxide emissions. The move towards hydrogen integration in the automotive industry signifies a step towards sustainability and innovation in the energy sector.
