Berlin is a city on a mission to pioneer transformative change for passenger transport. In a unique commercial collaboration, a taxi fleet of fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) is powerfully demonstrating the everyday suitability and environmental benefits of hydrogen-powered vehicles to the public, businesses and policymakers. Since the end of 2022, a fleet of 115 Toyota Mirai FCEVs has been busy driving through the German capital. The result?

BRUSSELS, November 16, 2023 – As we strive for a completely decarbonized world by 2050, the importance of hydrogen’s role in a transition to net zero has never been more evident.
