Welcome
Additionally to that, the high-voltage battery can
be charged via a charging port. Electric energy is
also provided by regenerative braking.
The vehicle may cause a whistle sound while
driving. This is normal and does not indicate any
damage.

The Manufacturer recommends the use of
genuine parts and accessories and factory
approved parts specific for your vehicle type.
The Manufacturer cannot assess or guarantee
reliability of other products - even if they have
a regulatory or otherwise granted approval. Any
modification, conversion or other changes made
to standard vehicle specifications (including,
without limitation, software modifications,
modifications of the electronic control units)
may invalidate the manufacturer warranty.
Furthermore, such changes may affect driver
assistance systems, may impact fuel or electric
power consumption, CO2 emissions and other
emissions of the vehicle and cause the vehicle
to no longer conform to the operating permit,
impacting the validity of your vehicle registration.
Crew Cab
Vehicle with third seat row
The fuel cell vehicle consists of:
-
-
-
The fuel cell and the electric engine (1)
located in the engine compartment.
Propulsion Type
The high-voltage battery (2) located under
the front seats.
Internal combustion
engine (ICE)
An ICE vehicle is propelled by an internal
combustion engine - diesel or petrol - only.
The hydrogen tank system (3) located under
the load compartment.
The hydrogen reacts in the fuel cell with oxygen
supplied from the ambient air. Water, heat and
electrical energy emerge from this reaction.
Water and excess air are released through the
exhaust, while the electric energy is used to
provide the electric engine and the high-voltage
battery with power.
In order to maximise the performance of the
vehicle and to maintain the charging level of the
high-voltage battery at approx. 50%, the system
automatically optimises the combination of high-
voltage battery and fuel cell use.
FCEV
Battery Electric Vehicle
(BEV)
Danger
A BEV is propelled by an electric engine only.
The high-voltage battery is charged using a
charging cable and additionally by engine
braking.
Important Safety Notice – Cargo Area
Do not drill, cut, or perform any mechanical
modifications on or through the cargo floor.
This area contains hydrogen storage tanks
operating at pressures up to 700 bar. Any
