Toyota has always been committed to contributing to the realization of "carbon neutrality" through all-round electrification technology. As a global partner in the field of mobility for the Olympic and Paralympic Games, Toyota will take the hydrogen fuel cell model as the core of the all-round electric mobility products, provide safe, secure and green travel services for the hard-working athletes, help the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, strive to reduce carbon emissions in the field of mobility during the Conference, and contribute to the "green Olympic Games, science and technology Olympic Games".
"Hydrogen Engine" drive, meet the ice and snow event
The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games will be held in Beijing and Zhangjiakou, Hebei Province, from February to March 2022. The cold environment during the Games poses great challenges for the service vehicles, especially the electrified models. As a global partner of the Olympic and Paralympic Games, Toyota will actively face challenges by contributing to China's carbon neutrality through all-round electrification technology, fully support transportation operations during the Games, and comprehensively contribute to the "Green Olympic Games".
Up to now, according to the official statistics of the Beijing Winter Olympic Organizing Committee, among the transportation service vehicles used in the Winter Olympic Games, energy-saving and clean energy vehicles account for 100% of passenger cars and 85.84% of all vehicles, which is the highest in the previous Winter Olympics. These include Toyota's FCEV "Mirai II" in China for the first time, the "Costa Hydrogen Engine" developed specifically for the conference, and a variety of BEV and HEV models. In addition, in order to better serve the Winter Paralympic Games, Toyota will also provide welfare vehicles for the use of people with disabilities.

According to statistics, toyota's total number of event service vehicles for the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games reached more than 2,200.
In addition, as a result of Toyota's cooperation with Beijing Motor Co., Ltd. and Beijing Yihuatong Technology Co., Ltd., the Winter Olympics will also use more than 200 Beiqi Foton hydrogen fuel cell buses equipped with Toyota's hydrogen fuel cell system.
Toyota's service vehicles for the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games are ready to go
After the Beijing Winter Olympics, Toyota will actively promote the subsequent reuse of FCEVs in the transportation service vehicles of the Winter Olympics, and hopes to take this as an opportunity to continuously promote the development of China's hydrogen fuel cell industry. At the same time, Toyota will continue to uphold the concept of "electrification technology can only contribute to environmental protection if it is popularized", continue to provide Chinese consumers with more and better all-round electrification products, and continue to carry out efforts such as afforestation and reducing CO2 emissions in factories and distribution stores, so as to contribute to China's carbon neutrality.
"Hydrogen Engine" drive, empowering industrial development
Carbon neutrality in industrial production refers to the production, transportation, use, reuse, and disposal of carbon dioxide produced throughout the life cycle. The earth's carbon dioxide concentration has been increasing since the Industrial Revolution. Cutting CO2 emissions is urgent. For the automotive industry, the popularization of electrification is an important measure to achieve carbon neutrality.
Toyota hopes to provide consumers with a more diversified way of travel, so that consumers can freely choose according to their different needs. To this end, Toyota has been striving to promote the development of all-round electrification technology, and promote the technological progress and popularization of HEV (dual engine), PHEV (dual engine E+), BEV (E-engine), and FCEV (hydrogen engine).
In China, the FCEV market, with commercial vehicles as the core, is expanding at an unprecedented rate. In order to popularize and promote FCEV in the rapidly changing Chinese market, Toyota and like-minded Chinese companies will work together to build the foundation for the development of FCEVs. Through the localization of hydrogen fuel cells, we will contribute to china's carbon neutrality.
