General Motors (GM) and Honda have introduced their groundbreaking joint venture, Fuel Cell System Manufacturing (FCSM), investing $85 million in an advanced Michigan facility for large-scale hydrogen fuel cell production.

The 70,000-square-foot facility aims to enhance performance, durability, and cost-effectiveness of hydrogen fuel cells.

The collaboration positions GM and Honda as leaders in sustainable transportation, with Honda planning to implement the new hydrogen system in its CR-V model by 2024.

The hydrogen fuel cell system is expected to cost one-third as much as its predecessor, contributing to broader accessibility of sustainable technology.

BMW is shifting its focus to hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, considering them a significant player in the future of automobile transportation.

While electric vehicles (EVs) have been the primary focus for zero-emission car manufacturers, hydrogen vehicles, utilizing fuel cells emitting only water vapor, are gaining attention for their sustainability.

BMW CEO Oliver Zipse stated that hydrogen engines would play a crucial role globally in the long run and aims to deliver these cars by 2025.

The BMW iX5 Hydrogen is expected to debut in 2024, offering features like rapid refueling, consistent driving range, and comparable performance to EVs.
