BMW and Toyota are joining forces to introduce their first-ever series production fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) in 2028, marking a significant leap in zero-emissions mobility. FCEVs differ from battery-electric vehicles as they utilize a fuel cell to convert stored hydrogen into electricity for propulsion. The collaboration between the two automotive giants includes the development of a third-generation powertrain system for passenger vehicles, aiming to create synergies and reduce the costs of fuel cell technology. In South Africa, BMW has already rolled out a pilot fleet of BMW iX5 Hydrogen fuel vehicles in partnership with Anglo American Platinum and Sasol. Sasol is producing green hydrogen from renewable sources like solar and wind energy, with plans to scale up production for commercialization. Sasol, Toyota SA, and Air Products SA are also working on initiatives to promote hydrogen as a future fuel. This partnership is seen as a crucial step towards establishing an on-road hydrogen mobility ecosystem. The advancement in hydrogen technology is viewed as a game-changer in automotive history, emphasizing the commitment of BMW and Toyota towards sustainable mobility solutions. The joint efforts of the companies not only aim to revolutionize the automotive industry but also contribute towards a greener and more environmentally friendly future.
