BMW Group and Toyota Motor Corporation have announced a collaboration to bring a new era of fuel cell powertrain technology to the passenger car market. The companies aim to enhance the hydrogen economy by leveraging their innovative strengths and technological capabilities. This partnership focuses on advancing core fuel cell technology, particularly the third-generation fuel cells, for both commercial and passenger vehicle applications. BMW plans to introduce its first series production fuel cell electric vehicle in 2028, offering customers an additional all-electric powertrain option with zero local emissions. The collaboration marks a significant milestone in automotive history, with the goal of providing customers with a range of mobility solutions. Both companies emphasize the importance of 'technology openness' and a 'multi-pathway' approach to achieve carbon neutrality. By deepening their collaboration, BMW and Toyota aim to develop next-generation fuel cell systems and expand infrastructure to support the realization of a hydrogen society. The result of this partnership will lead to the integration of the new fuel cell technology in individual models of BMW and Toyota, bringing the vision of hydrogen mobility closer to reality. Customers can expect distinct FCEV models from both brands, each maintaining its unique brand identity and characteristics. The joint efforts of BMW and Toyota, along with partners from various industries, are set to accelerate the transition towards a future where hydrogen energy plays a significant role in supporting society's needs.
