Toyota Makes an Impact on Hydrogen Fuel Cell Truck Market

Toyota is not alone in its pursuit of hydrogen fuel cell trucks; other automakers, including Nikola, Hyundai and Daimler Truck North America, are also working on these trucks.

Hydrogen fuel cell trucks offer many advantages over traditional diesel trucks, including zero emissions that make them suitable for urban and suburban environments. Furthermore, their longer range makes them superior alternatives to battery-electric trucks.

However, adopting hydrogen fuel cell trucks does present some obstacles: their infrastructure for refuelling remains underdeveloped, and their cost exceeds diesel fuel.

Toyota remains confident that hydrogen fuel cell trucks have a bright future despite these challenges, investing heavily in this technology and working to make hydrogen fuel cell trucks more cost-effective and accessible.
