The core fuel cell stacks are a Toyota technology, with BMW supplying the new hydrogen tank, electric drive train and high voltage battery. A fuel cell stack should last around 5,000 hours or 200,000 km (125,000 miles).

The technology is also aimed at cars larger in size, like those 5 Series and above models which can go up to 500 km (310 miles) on a single refill.
