Daimler Truck AG and KEYOU GmbH will collaborate to bring hydrogen-powered internal combustion engines to market readiness as a complementary drive solution for road freight transport. The aim of the partnership is to provide technology that is available in the near term, economically viable, and robust, complementing existing decarbonized drive solutions. Daimler Truck’s existing vehicle and engine variants will form the technical basis for rapid implementation and market introduction. KEYOU will be responsible for the hydrogen conversion, with service providers of the Munich-based company adapting vehicles and engines accordingly. Market launch is planned for 2027. A corresponding agreement has now been signed by the parties.
