Al-Futtaim Motors, exclusive distributor of Toyota and Lexus in the UAE, in collaboration with Toyota Motor Corporation, has proposed to conduct a new study in the field of sustainable mobility for the feasibility of establishing a hydrogen (H2)-based society in the UAE.

As part of the study, a pilot plan will be put in place to test Toyota’s zero-emission Fuel Cell technology through a number of H2 powered Fuel Cell Toyota Mirai vehicles, in order to check their viability in the UAE.

Al-Futtaim Motors also made another major announcement about the signing of a partnership with Air Liquide who will support Al-Futtaim Motors and Toyota Motor Corporation in their assessment of H2 as a clean energy solution for the UAE

The announcement was made at the 2nd International Conference on Future Mobility where Len Hunt, President Automotive Group at Al-Futtaim, said, “This is a significant step forward in our journey towards contributing to the possible development of a H2 society, in which everything from vehicles to work and living places are powered by the zero-emission H2. More importantly for the UAE, using H2 as a primary source of fuel considerably expedites achieving the sustainability targets set by the UAE Government, and helps the country significantly reduce its CO2 footprint in the coming decades.”
