Alongside this latest award for SAIC, Faurecia and Symbio, its joint venture with Michelin, will supply Safra and Stellantis with fuel cell stacks and hydrogen storage system for light commercial vehicles, buses and commercial vehicles. Starting deliveries this summer and over a four-year period, Faurecia will also equip around 1,600 Hyundai heavy duty trucks that will be delivered to Hyundai Hydrogen Mobility in Switzerland. Faurecia and Renault also announced earlier this year their intention to collaborate on hydrogen storage systems for hydrogen light commercial vehicles.
Perfectly suited to commercial, heavy-duty, and on- and off-road vehicles, as well as high-horsepower engines, hydrogen mobility will play a key role in depolluting transportation and logistics. Mastering over 75% of the fuel cell value chain, Faurecia is well-placed to support growing demand for zero-emissions hydrogen mobility solutions globally and become a world leader with sales of over €3.5bn1 in 2030.
