Kansai Airport has introduced a fuel cell microbus in collaboration with Kishiwada Kanko Bus.
The vehicle is based on Toyota’s Coaster and equipped with the MIRAI fuel cell system, capable of highway driving. This type is the first of its kind in the Kansai region and becomes the second hydrogen fuel vehicle following the airport shuttle “SORA.”
The new bus is planned to operate for airport tours as well as tours around the Senshu area and tours for the Osaka/Kansai Expo. Since it does not emit carbon dioxide while running, it contributes to the thematic goals of the future society showcase of the Osaka/Kansai Expo: “Green Expo” and “Smart Mobility Expo.”
The company aims to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 and is promoting measures to reduce environmental impact, such as introducing renewable energy and utilizing hydrogen.
