Toyota Debuts 547-HP Hydrogen Tacoma H2-Overlander Concept at SEMA 2025

The one-off showcases Toyota’s multi‑pathway carbon‑neutral strategy by applying fuel‑cell tech to off‑grid overlanding.

Overview

  • Engineered in-house by TRD teams in California and North Carolina, the concept pairs a Mirai-derived fuel-cell stack with three hydrogen tanks totaling 6 kg, a 24.9‑kWh battery, and dual motors for a combined 547 horsepower.
  • A 15‑kW power takeoff with dual NEMA 14‑50 outlets can run a campsite or supply enough export power to charge two EVs or support home-scale loads.
  • A patent‑pending exhaust water recovery system captures and filters the fuel cell’s byproduct for washing and showering, with Toyota cautioning it is not potable.
  • Off‑road upgrades include a TRD billet long‑travel suspension with Fox 2.5 Performance Elite Series shocks, Tundra front brakes, 17x8.5 wheels on 35‑inch tires, a front limited‑slip differential, and a rear electronic locker.
  • Toyota emphasizes the vehicle is a show prototype with non‑production modifications, and limited hydrogen refueling infrastructure makes near‑term consumer availability unlikely.
