Isuzu y Honda presentan su camión Giga Fuel Cell
Isuzu and Honda have revealed the name and technical specifications of their jointly developed fuel cell truck, which will be presented to the public for the first time in a few days at the Japan Mobility Show.
The truck is called “Giga Fuel Cell” and has a total weight of 25 tonnes. It has four fuel cell stacks from Honda with 103 kW power each and a hydrogen storage capacity of 56 kilograms. It is powered by a 320 kW electric motor and is said to complete up to 800 kilometres between fuelling stops. It measures 11,980mm / 2,490mm / 3,770mm.
And the H2 truck can be used as a mobile power station. It “is equipped with an external power output function,” says Honda, which could come in handy in times of disaster. The two ports (CHAdeMO connectors) can supply up to 530 kWh.
According to Isuzu and Honda, the Giga Fuel Cell production model will hit the road in 2027. Demonstration testing is said to kick off before the end of the fiscal year, so before 31 March 2024.
Honda e Isuzu Motors habían acordado llevar a cabo una investigación conjunta sobre camiones pesados propulsados por pilas de combustible a principios de 2020. En mayo, they announced that they plan to launch a hydrogen-powered truck.
Honda publicó su estrategia futura para el uso de pilas de combustible para su propio uso y comercialización en Febrero de 2023. At the time, the manufacturer decided to split its fuel cell efforts into four core domains for the utilization of its fuel cell system: fuel cell vehicles, commercial vehicles, stationary power stations and construction machinery.
Isuzu también está siguiendo otras asociaciones en el ámbito de los camiones de pila de combustible, por ejemplo en el ámbito de los camiones comerciales ligeros con Hino y Toyota.
