AutoExec Summary
The article discusses Toyota’s hydrogen-powered HiAce prototype, highlighting its potential as a zero-emissions alternative to electric commercial vans. The HiAce uses a modified 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 engine and can theoretically enter production without altering Toyota’s supply chain. Although the hydrogen HiAce is not yet confirmed for production, it demonstrates promise, especially for heavy loads and long-distance driving where electric vehicles fall short. The hydrogen infrastructure is still developing, but Toyota hopes to capitalise on future investments.
