Aside from the other points raised here, presumably there are safety concerns too - a hydrogen tank is basically a highly pressurised bomb; I'm not sure how you go about keeping that safe in a collision except making it heavily-armoured and hoping for the best.
- effie 5y agoIt is a bomb alright, but surprisingly that is the least of its problems. The bomb can be made strong enough to withstand great majority of accidents. Of course it won't withstand some very nasty ones, but that rare possibility people could live with. The problem with hydrogen is there is no hydrogen available, we have to first generate it and distribute it to cars. So far this process is much more expensive than generating and distributing electric power.
