Toyota, Everfuel and DRIVR sign agreement

The parties have announced a five-year collaboration agreement that will scale the current number of fuel cell taxis in Copenhagen, Denmark. Currently, over 100 of Toyota’s hydrogen cars, Mirai, are driving the streets of Copenhagen as taxis for the Danish taxicab carrier, DRIVR.

The three companies have a joint ambition of reaching 500 Mirais in Copenhagen by the end of 2025, and more than 200 by the end of 2022, which will significantly contribute to the decarbonisation of the Danish capital.

All three parties have an established concept, and they look forward to the continuous symbiosis between the vehicle manufacturer, the taxicab company and the hydrogen provider, that will move the market for fuel-cell vehicles substantially forward.

Everfuel already delivers hydrogen to DRIVR’s taxis and will be the sole hydrogen provider throughout the five-year contract. The company is now working actively at establishing further hydrogen refuelling stations in the Greater Copenhagen area to meet the increasing demand from the new Mirai taxis and other vehicle segments.

The collaboration between Toyota, DRIVR, and Everfuel has in 2021 proven how hydrogen taxis are a part of a fossil-free future. That serves as a solid foundation for the companies’ future collaboration, and they are now looking into expanding further outside Denmark to offer green transportation to even more taxi customers.
