The company presented its plans at the Hydrogen Wave global online forum held on Tuesday.

The Group said it will introduce next- generation fuel cell system - 100kW and 200kW variations - in 2023 with costs being lowered by more than 50 per cent, total package volume reduced by 30 per cent and power output doubled.

The Group plans to achieve a fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) price point comparable to a battery electric vehicle (BEV) by 2030.
