- The company cited limited refueling infrastructure, high investment costs and weak purchase incentives as reasons for abandoning its hydrogen van program.

- Peers including Hype, Honda, Hylane and Daimler Truck are also scaling back hydrogen initiatives, underscoring a wider industry pullback from fuel cell mobility.
