A Fuel Cell Vehicle (FCV) is a type of electric vehicle that uses a fuel cell to convert hydrogen gas into electricity. This process produces only water vapor and heat as byproducts, making FCVs environmentally friendly. The electricity generated powers an electric motor, allowing the vehicle to operate efficiently and quietly.
FCVs are refueled with hydrogen at specialized stations, similar to traditional gasoline vehicles. They typically offer a longer driving range and faster refueling times compared to battery electric vehicles. Major automotive manufacturers, such as Toyota and Honda, have developed FCV models to promote sustainable transportation solutions.
