The 2023 Auto Expo is just around the corner and we expect carmakers to showcase and/or launch several cars at the auto show. Carmakers such as Hyundai, Toyota and MG are set to showcase their latest hydrogen fuel cell vehicles and related technologies at the Auto Expo 2023. Check them out below.

Hyundai Nexo

Hyundai showcased their Nexo fuel-cell vehicle at the 2020 Auto Expo and we expect that Hyundai will not miss the chance to showcase the Nexo again and ignite further interest in hydrogen-powered vehicles. The Nexo FCV is already on sale in the US and Hyundai even display the Nexo FCEV at their headquarters in Gurugram. The Nexo FCV comes with a hydrogen fuel cell, which along with the battery pack, offers 183PS of power. We do not expect Hyundai to launch the Nexo FCV in India anytime soon but they may consider it in the future.

Toyota Mirai

Last year, Toyota Kirloskar Motor signed an MoU with the International Centre for Automotive Technology (ICAT) and Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL) for the Mirai pilot project. Toyota will now showcase their hydrogen technology at the 2023 Auto Expo as well. The second-gen Toyota Mirai made its debut last year. The Toyota Mirai FCEV comes with 3 hydrogen tanks. Unlike electric cars, which take a couple of hours to charge, the Mirai can fill up all 3 hydrogen tanks in under 5 minutes, giving it a range of 650km. However, Toyota are not likely to launch the Mirai FCEV in India.

MG Fuel Cell Vehicle

MG Motor India recently shared a couple of teasers, including a fuel cell vehicle concept, ahead of the 2023 Auto Expo. While we do not expect MG to launch a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle in India anytime soon, the carmaker will showcase their fuel cell technology, which they refer to as new energy vehicles. MG could soon launch a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle in global markets and the same could also head to India if there’s sufficient demand for alternative fuel vehicles in the near future.
