10-15 years ago BMW was promoting bivalent Hydrogen/petrol as the future and one of their spokespeople even mocked Toyota at a car show over the prius (according to a contemporary article in the Roundel). Glad they ate those words because I don't think the hydrogen was very workable.

Do you think hydrogen is not a viable fuel for cars? Why? Toyota seems to be starting making hydrogen cars: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Mirai https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Mirai I'm not sure myself. For now, it looks like just another type of fuel for gas* stations to carry, yet it doesn't seem to offer better range or other advantages. * now, if hydrogen powered cars will catch on, this gas Americanism will have the right meaning, at once :-)
