According to a media report, Audi is expected to intensify development of its hydrogen fuel cell technology. The move comes amidst concerns over sourcing of rare natural resources for battery productions as well as increasing customer demands from electric vehicles (EVs).

It is also reported that the German carmaker will unveil a 6th-generation hydrogen fuel cell prototype later this year. Subsequently, the company could also offer the Audi FCEV (fuel cell electric vehicle) car to customers by 2021 as part of a lease program. The car could be made at the Neckarsulm plant in Germany, which currently manufactures A6, A7 and A8 models.

In 2016, Audi revealed the h-tron fuel cell concept with a 600 km range and a refuelling time of 4 minutes. The company also plans to launch 12 battery electric vehicles (BEV) by 2025.
