Toyota and BMW have announced an enhanced partnership to develop fuel-cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) and hydrogen-based solutions for passenger cars. BMW plans to introduce its first production FCEV in 2028, while Toyota has been selling the Mirai FCEV since 2014 in limited volumes. The collaboration aims to leverage shared powertrain technology to provide appealing FCEV options. This move comes as both companies see potential in FCEVs as a profitable venture, especially with the growing investments in hydrogen infrastructure and 'green hydrogen' production. The companies foresee hydrogen-powered vehicles as a key element in achieving carbon neutrality and reducing dependence on fossil fuels. Beyond passenger cars, Toyota is extending its FCEV efforts to heavy trucks, aligning with California's plans to phase out diesel trucks. BMW's upcoming FCEV models will feature a new fuel-cell stack that offers improved efficiency and thermal stability. The partnership between BMW and Toyota, known for successful collaborations in the past, highlights a shared commitment to technological advancement and sustainability. The unity of these automotive giants signifies a positive step towards a future where FCEVs play a significant role in the transportation sector.
