As two major manufacturers double down on developing hydrogen cell cars.
The complaints about electric infrastructure not being ready for widespread adoption but people championing hydrogen cell just boggles my mind.
What part of that confuses you? Hydrogen is better for cars VS batteries in every meaningful way in 2024. Long range, quick fill ups, zero harmful emissions, don't need to live in SFH or rely on landlord/HOA to grant you the privilege of charging your car.
Hydrogen cell cars are electric cars that don't rely on severely underdeveloped technology of batteries we have today.
Not to mention all the ecological damage mining for battery components does. I'm with you, hydrogen is the way to go
Yes, the batteries are smaller, but you also need the fuel cells catalyst. It's not a clear win for the HFC car.
