A fuel cell system includes a fuel cell stack formed from a plurality of cell units, which have gas diffusion layers, wherein the gas diffusion layer of at least one of the edge cell units has a heat transfer mechanism of reduced efficiency in comparison with the gas diffusion layer of a cell unit from the middle of the fuel cell stack. A motor vehicle may include such a fuel cell system.
