Toyota’s new hydrogen truck drives 300 miles, generates drinkable water

Toyota introduced the Tacoma H2-Overlander Concept at the 2025 SEMA Show, showcasing a hydrogen-powered off-road truck designed by Toyota Racing Development (TRD). Built on the Tacoma’s TNGA-F chassis, the truck replaces the traditional gas engine with a second-generation hydrogen fuel cell stack from the Toyota Mirai sedan, paired with three carbon-fiber hydrogen tanks storing about 6 kilograms of hydrogen. This setup powers dual electric motors delivering a combined 547 horsepower with instant torque, zero emissions, and near-silent operation. The truck offers a driving range of approximately 300 miles and can refuel in just five minutes, addressing key limitations of electric vehicles. The Tacoma H2-Overlander is equipped for rugged off-road use with Fox shocks, 35-inch all-terrain tires, and advanced differential systems for enhanced control. A standout feature is its water recovery system, which filters and stores the water vapor exhaust into up to 14 gallons of drinkable water per fill-up,
