Summary:The invention relates to a fuel cell drive for a motor vehicle, in particular a utility vehicle, with a fuel cell assembly (1) as an energy source and a fuel cell cooling assembly (2) for adjustably cooling the fuel cell assembly (1) in dependence on the load. The fuel cell assembly (1) comprises at least two fuel cell units (3.1, 3.2) that can be controlled independently from each with a number of fuel cells that are connected in series. The fuel cell cooling assembly (2) comprises, for each of said fuel cell units (3.1, 3.2), an individual fuel cell cooling unit (4.1, 4.2) by means of which the fuel cells of the respective fuel cell unit (3.1, 3.2) can be cooled in dependence on at least one control variable.
