Battery electric vehicles have become the preferred choice in the zero-emissions vehicle market, with significantly higher sales compared to fuel cell electric vehicles, particularly in passenger cars. The total cost of ownership for commercial vehicles like buses and trucks favors BEVs over internal combustion engine vehicles due to challenges faced by FCEVs in upfront costs, availability, and pricing of hydrogen. Despite these hurdles, IDTechEx sees a future for FCEVs in the next two decades. This optimism is supported by the upcoming release of new FCEV models by major manufacturers such as Hyundai and BMW and advancements in fuel cell technology and the hydrogen infrastructure. The challenges for FCEVs are acknowledged, but the outlook includes opportunities for FCEVs across different vehicle segments, emphasizing the need for addressing current barriers to wider adoption.
