Toyota Motor Corporation is exploring hydrogen-powered trucks for its auto parts logistics. Rising gasoline prices and supply chain strains are driving the shift toward alternative fuels.
Vice Chairperson Koji Sato confirmed the company may also implement hydrogen energy within factories and supplier networks. This strategy pivots hydrogen use toward commercial and industrial applications.
Management views the logistics sector as more viable than the struggling fuel-cell passenger car market. Concentrating on commercial use addresses long-standing infrastructure and cost challenges associated with hydrogen adoption.
