The technology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
At its core, the system is based on a paradigm shift: away from individual pressure tanks and towards a multi-chamber, parallel-connected architecture. The tanks are made of carbon fiber-reinforced composite materials and are integrated into a robust metal frame. They are controlled together via a central valve system and behave functionally like a single energy storage unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This configuration improves volumetric efficiency while ensuring structural safety, as the tanks are additionally protected by the surrounding vehicle structure. In total, the system stores around 7 kg of hydrogen and enables refueling times of less than five minutes. This achieves a range of up to 750 km.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In combination with a compact Gen3 fuel cell and a high-voltage battery, a closely coupled electrochemical energy architecture is created - in contrast to a retrofitted integrated system solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
The lightweight aspect<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
From a lightweight construction perspective, the innovation lies less in the isolated mass reduction of individual components than in functional integration and systemic efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The flat tank geometry maximizes space utilization, reduces redundant packaging volumes and enables integration into existing battery compartments. The use of carbon fiber-reinforced composite materials offers high specific strength under 700 bar pressure conditions. At the same time, the structural embedding of the tank system reduces the need for additional protective structures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another decisive advantage results from the compatibility with a standardized vehicle architecture: The use of common interfaces for different drive variants reduces system complexity and avoids multiple design of structural components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The result is a holistic lightweight construction approach in which packaging efficiency, multifunctional structures and material selection work together to optimize both mass and system performance.<\/p>\n\n\n
