"People are saying that trucks should come first, then passenger cars, not because technology is more developed for that segment, but because trucks have no other solution. But in order to develop fuel cell systems for trucks, it has to be done first with passenger vehicles because you can mass produce. Truck volumes can’t come close to volumes of passenger cars. We can come up with various scenarios to reduce costs by mass producing cars that would be hard to do with just trucks. That’s why we plan to develop for both cars and trucks at the same time. A lot of technologies used for cars can be applied to trucks."
