In 2027, Honda will begin production of its Next Gen fuel cell module. This marks a major milestone for the company, with the debut highlighted at two major expos: the International Hydrogen & Fuel Cell Expo in Japan and the Advanced Clean Transportation Expo in North America.
Introducing the Next Gen Honda Fuel Cell Module
The automotive industry continues to prioritize efficiency. Manufacturers aim to boost economic performance, while customers seek reliable, energy-efficient technology. Honda's new Fuel Cell Module delivers on both fronts, potentially slashing production costs by 50%. Drivers will also benefit from enhanced reliability and improved everyday usability.
Twice the Durability
According to Honda, the new fuel cell tech will offer “double” the durability and could lower manufacturing costs by up to half. What's more, the latest module features triple the volumetric power density, boosting its overall efficiency.
Seeking Strategic Partnerships
Honda's innovation opens the door for promising collaborations in the fuel cell sector. The company is actively seeking business partners who are equally committed to advancing fuel cell solutions.
Voices from the Top
David Perznski, Hydrogen Solutions Development assistant manager at American Honda Motor Co., Inc., stated, “Our production plan for the next generation Honda fuel cell module demonstrates our continued commitment to support hydrogen as an enabler for decarbonization.” Honda is eager to showcase these advancements to a broader audience.
On April 28, the brand will unveil its Class 8 Hydrogen Fuel Cell Truck concept, highlight the new fuel cell module, and introduce the 2025 Honda CR-V e:FCEV—the first plug-in hydrogen fuel cell EV manufactured in the U.S. The new module features a 450-850V output voltage, 150 kW maximum net output, and a peak net efficiency of 59.8%. Honda welcomes potential collaborators interested in developing this technology further.
