In today’s commercial vehicle industry, there are many alternative energy sources. Such pure electric power fits vans, vans and vans.

But Toyota also has other options to offer besides pure electric power as well,

Including hybrids, plug-in hybrids, and hydrogen, especially hydrogen, which is only fielded in the Toyota Mirai sedan, but this is the first time in the camp. Centered on the pickup with the Toyota Hilux H2 Prototype, take the all-wheel drive XTRA Cab model. Replace the diesel engine with a hydrogen engine.

The engine was borrowed from the second generation Toyota Mirai, slightly modified as a rear-wheel drive SUV, producing 185 horsepower and 300 Nm of torque, in combination with an electric motor and a 1.2-volt lithium-ion battery. 3 hydrogen tanks under the car are filled with ladder chassis. The tank has a total capacity of 141 liters and a range of 647 km.

Toyota is developing a prototype of a new zero-emission model for the commercial vehicle market to respond to changing customer demands on the path to carbon neutrality and for a holistic approach to mobility.  Toyota England, which applied to APC last year to support the development of future car technologies in the UK, is building a fuel cell prototype Hilux with the money raised from it.

A consortium of engineering firms led by Toyota such as Ricardo, ETL, D2H and Thatcham Research is converting the Hilux into a fuel cell vehicle using the second generation of Toyota fuel cell devices also found in the new Mirai.

For more than 20 years, Toyota has continued to deliver a multifaceted approach to achieving the goal of carbon neutrality: full hybrid, plug-in hybrid, electric and fuel cell vehicles. With this approach,

The first vehicle prototypes will be produced at the Burnaston facility in England. Following the performance results, the goal will be to achieve mass production in small quantities.

Emphasizing that fuel cell technology can be used in different fields with this project,

Toyota will contribute to the progress of the entire industry in reducing carbon.

Toyota Hilux H2 Prototype Toyota Motor Manufacturing UK is the head of development and has several British partners coming together to complete this pickup truck from the Toyota Motor Europe R&D team

Ricardo, an engineering company that supports From the technical side of the fuel cell and ladder structure structure,

ETL for Thermal Control, D2H in Thermodynamic Engineering, and Thatcham Research on Safety and Assurance.
