Why would you burn hydrogen in a car? It's more efficient to burn it in a power plant and run the car on electricity.

- wkat4242 3y agoI'm sure there's some niche uses where it makes sense. Fast refueling for example because batteries are so slow. And much heavier than a Wankel engine plus hydrogen tank. Like in a public transport bus that needs to be on the go all day. In fact I'm pretty sure that's what the hydrogen buses in my city do, they're way too noisy to be fuel cell electric. Besides, if you can run on electric you can bypass the whole hydrogen step altogether.
