Food truck
Toyota has long since sunk its teeth into hydrogen technology and with the FCV Express Diner shows a stubborn poster of its hunger for hydrogen. The Toyota FCV Express Diner is one food truck that uses hydrogen not only for its propulsion.
To further warm up the Australian consumer to the great future that Toyota envisions for the application of hydrogen, the brand is touring the immense country with what it calls the Hydrogen Showcase. In the period up to and including June, Toyota will show the Mirai and a city bus with fuel cell on board in major cities such as Brisbane, Sydney and Perth, but the real icing on the hydrogen cake is the Toyota FCV Express Diner.
Nice cooking.
The Toyota FCV Express Diner is a tot food truck transformed HiAce, complete with a kitchen unit containing an induction hob with five burners, an oven, a rice cooker, a refrigerator, a freezer and three sinks. The energy required for this is obtained by the FCV Express Diner from a fuel cell. But there’s more. Unlike a regular HiAce, the FCV Express Diner does not have a petrol or diesel engine, but the powertrain of the Toyota Mirai. Thanks to two hydrogen tanks that together can store 5.6 kilograms of hydrogen, the FCV Express Diner should be able to drive up to 400 kilometers. However, there do not seem to be any concrete production plans.
