Hydrogen Specifications
Use only hydrogen meeting specification J2719.
Fueling Station Pressure Levels
The vehicle is designed for 10,000 psi (70 MPa)
compressed hydrogen.
If no 10,000 psi (70 MPa) compressed hydrogen fueling
dispenser is available, a dispenser with a lower
pressure level, such as 5,000 psi (35 MPa), can also be
connected to your vehicle. In the case of a low
pressure fill, the vehicle hydrogen tank only gets filled to
the pressure level used for the fueling.
