23 23 1. For the diversification of energy sources and CO 2 reduction, early commercialization of FCVs are urgent and vital matters. 2. The popularization of FCV requires: 1) 1)Vehicle marketability 2) 2)Hydrogen infrastructure development 3) 3)Increased societal acceptance of various energy sources 3. Toyota is overcoming the technical challenges of: Summary Towards commercialization of FCV, Toyota focuses on improving durability/reliability and reducing costs. 1) 1)Actual cruising range of 300 miles or more 2) 2)Cold start capability at -22degF (-30degC) 4. Toyota is working together with energy companies and the government towards creating a hydrogen society, including codes & standards development and hydrogen infrastructure preparation.
