US EditionStellantis discontinues hydrogen fuel cell programme and van production
EUROPE, JUL 16 – Stellantis cancels hydrogen-powered Pro One vans launch due to high costs and infrastructure limits, redirecting R&D to electric vehicles amid fewer than 1,200 hydrogen stations worldwide.
- Stellantis will discontinue its hydrogen fuel cell technology program and will not launch hydrogen-powered vehicles this year, citing a lack of market development in the mid-term.
- The decision was influenced by limited hydrogen refuelling infrastructure and the need for stronger purchase incentives, according to Stellantis.
- Stellantis NV will withdraw from a joint hydrogen-vehicle venture with Michelin and Forvia SE, jeopardizing the project's future.
- Forvia has confirmed it was informed about Stellantis’ plan to halt hydrogen investments starting in 2026, marking a shift from Stellantis' previous ambitions in this market.
