Toyota has used hydrogen fuel cell technology to create zero-emission Class 8 trucks for heavy-duty trucking (Project Portal) and commercially available passenger vehicles (the Toyota Mirai). To support this effort, the 2018–2019 Toyota Clinic team generated a design map and hardware recommendations for future fuel cell systems.
