Renault has unveiled the Master H2-Tech Prototype, a hydrogen-powered van designed to revolutionize commercial transport. Introduced at the IAA Transportation event in Hannover, the van boasts a 700 km range on a single charge under WLTP conditions and a rapid 5-minute refueling time, setting new benchmarks for operational efficiency. Manufactured in France, the Master H2-Tech integrates cutting-edge hydrogen architecture without compromising load capacity or operational efficiency. This prototype is part of Renault's commitment to zero-emission technology and professional mobility solutions. The Master H2-Tech, developed by HYVIA, a joint venture between Renault and Plug, aims to cater to professional users' needs across various industries. The van will join existing internal combustion and electric models, all produced on the same multi-energy platform in France. By integrating dual power (battery and fuel cell), the Master H2-Tech ensures high energy efficiency and reliability while meeting payload capacity expectations. HYVIA's expertise also extends to building a complete hydrogen ecosystem, including hydrogen stations and carbon-free fuel supply. Expected for commercial launch in 2025, Renault anticipates that the hydrogen-powered Master will establish a new standard for sustainable and high-performance commercial vehicles. This initiative is in line with Renault's Renaulution strategic plan, reflecting the company's commitment to electrified and hydrogen mobility solutions to lead the way in sustainable transportation. The Master H2-Tech Prototype embodies Renault's dedication to innovation and eco-friendly advancements in the commercial transport sector.
