Toyota has unveiled its latest hydrogen fuel-cell technology, the third-generation system designed to enhance fuel efficiency and durability for both passenger vehicles and heavy-duty commercial units. The new system is set to be introduced in markets in Japan, Europe, North America, and China after 2026. Toyota highlights that the 3rd Gen FC System offers up to two times the durability of its predecessor, comparable to diesel engines, and requires no maintenance. In terms of performance, the system provides a 20% increase in cruising range compared to the second-generation technology. Toyota achieved cost reductions through advancements in cell design and manufacturing processes. By making the system more compact, Toyota aims for easier integration into various commercial vehicles and general-purpose applications like stationary generators, rail, and ships. Toyota's commitment to hydrogen fuel extends over a decade, with the Mirai sedan being sold in more than 30 countries and over 28,000 units sold to date. Since 2019, Toyota has supplied fuel-cell systems for buses, railroads, and stationary generators, totaling more than 2,700 units. Hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles offer emission-free operation with water vapor as the only byproduct, along with quick refueling comparable to gasoline-powered cars. However, the development of hydrogen infrastructure remains limited, with fewer than 10 public fuelling stations in Canada.
