Isuzu Giga Fuel Cell

800 km on hydrogen, but this is a demonstration vehicle — the Giga Fuel Cell has been in road testing since December 2023, with production expected in 2027.

Buying decision

The EvCompass verdict

The key arguments drawn from the published data and the EvCompass editorial summary.

The claimed 800 km is the longest distance in this database, but it measures a tank rather than a battery — and it belongs to a vehicle nobody can buy. Isuzu is running public-road trials in partnership with Honda, which is a more serious signal than a prototype alone. Not for sale.

Strengths

  • 800 km between refuelling stops on 56 kg of hydrogen gives the Giga demonstrator a clearly defined fuel-cell range.

Weaknesses

  • The Giga is a fuel-cell vehicle without a plug, so 800 km is not a battery range or a DC-charging result.

Specifications

Manufacturer-published facts grouped by the decisions they inform, without raw source headings.

Battery and charging

On charging
FUEL-CELL ELECTRIC, NOT A PLUG-IN BEV. Four Honda fuel-cell stacks of 103 kW each (412 kW total) and 56 kg of hydrogen storage. No charging inlet, no battery swap. It does have an external power-output function via two CHAdeMO connectors, able to supply up to 530 kWh.

Measurement basis
Manufacturer/press: up to 800 km between fuelling stops. Fuel-cell tank range, not battery range; test basis not stated.

This is a hydrogen vehicle — the figure describes range on one tank fill, not on a battery, and is not comparable with battery-electric range.

These are manufacturer-published figures gathered through EvCompass research.

Price and availability

What it costs and whether it is available in Poland

Published price evidence and the Polish availability answer, kept together for a buying decision.

The manufacturer publishes no price for this vehicle.

In heavy transport that is the rule rather than the exception — makers quote on request.

Demonstration vehicle; not for sale, no price.

Poland

Not available in Poland

Japan-only demonstration vehicle; not sold anywhere.

Charging infrastructure

Recommended chargers

Chargers matched to the vehicle's published power or to a clearly stated duty profile when that figure is missing.

This vehicle does not publish its own DC charging power. The chargers below are matched to a charging profile typical for this class of vehicle (around 350 kW), not to a figure this vehicle publishes.

The sources and research notes behind the figures, claims and editorial assessment.

IMAGE GAP - only one photo found. FUEL CELL, NOT BATTERY-ELECTRIC, and a public-road demonstration vehicle (testing began December 2023) with a production model expected in 2027 - hence productionStatus 'pre-production'. Included so the record set shows honestly that Isuzu has NO heavy battery-electric truck: its BEV offer is the N-Series (60 / 100 / 140 / 180 kWh, 41-235 miles range), which is light/medium-duty and well below N3 heavy. 25 t GVW, 11,980 x 2,490 x 3,770 mm, four Honda stacks at 103 kW each, 56 kg H2, 320 kW motor. Axle configuration was not published.
