Toyota Motor Europe has partnered with VDL Groep to introduce fuel cell trucks for sustainable logistics, aiming to achieve zero tailpipe emissions in heavy-duty vehicles. The collaboration has led to the deployment of four additional fuel cell trucks following an initial demonstration vehicle, now operational in Belgium, France, Germany, and the Netherlands. Powered by electricity from hydrogen and oxygen, these trucks offer a range of up to 400km on a single refuel. Besides environmental benefits, they provide a smoother ride with vibration-free electric motors. Toyota's R&D vice president highlighted the initiative's alignment with the company's carbon neutrality goal by 2040 and its role in growing the hydrogen economy. The move also reflects Toyota's strategy to expand into the new energy vehicle market, exemplified by the launch of the bZ5 SUV in China. Overall, the introduction of fuel cell trucks showcases Toyota's commitment to innovation and sustainability in logistics operations.
