ResumoThe Toyota FCHV-adv that was released in 2008 has a cruising range in actual driving conditions of more than 500 km and can be started in temperatures as low as -30°, thereby overcoming two of the major obstacles to the practical adoption of FCVs. Toyota is continuing to resolve technical issues to popularize FCVs. For example, Toyota aims to reduce the cost to about 1/20 by further development work. In addition to improving commercial appeal, the widespread adoption of FCVs depends on the establishment of basic hydrogen infrastructure. Toward 2015, Car manufactures including Toyota are continuing to cooperate with governments and energy businesses to establish infrastructure and make the necessary modifications to laws and regulations. This article summarizes the technical progress for FCVs
