BMW began real-world testing of an 18-ton hydrogen combustion-engine truck in logistics at its Leipzig plant. Project targets lower transport CO₂ emissions by using hydrogen in a piston engine, producing water vapor with virtually no CO₂. Trial covers longer routes near the plant, including three-shift operations, to assess suitability for just-in-time supply runs. BMW framed hydrogen trucks as a scalable complement to battery-electric trucks for high-mileage use cases with limited charging infrastructure. Testing forms part of the HyCET program, funded by Germany’s Federal Ministry of Transport, to generate operational and economic data.
