BMW Motorsport is exploring the integration of hydrogen technology into its motorsport activities with a unique emphasis on fuel cells rather than hydrogen combustion engines. In a recent interview, CEO Franciscus van Meel expressed BMW's stance against hydrogen combustion engines due to the emissions they produce, highlighting the importance of a clean racing solution. This approach differentiates BMW from competitors like Toyota and Alpine, who are showcasing hydrogen combustion engine concepts. The Automobile Club de l'Ouest (ACO), leading hydrogen racing efforts, is open to both technologies, with their current prototypes utilizing fuel cells. BMW's vision aligns with its future plans, as it is currently testing a global fleet of iX5 Hydrogen SUVs and anticipates hydrogen as the next trend in the automotive industry after electric cars. While challenges exist, such as bulky fuel tanks, BMW remains invested in exploring the potential of hydrogen technology alongside their electric racing initiatives. The company is already working on the next generation of fuel cell hydrogen cars, likely to be presented on the Neue Klasse architecture in the future. BMW's engagement in hydrogen technology signifies a forward-looking approach in sustainability and innovation.
