  1. Yup. But actually hydrogen cars are already obsolete.

  2.  @ytuuuidvb6181  not at all

  3. It’s quite terrible for cars. Very inefficient.

  4. The lithium will obviously be recycled.

  5.  @Gordanovich02  It's just simple physics.

  6. Because it is terribly inefficient and therefore not green at all.

  7. Yeah Rosie is great.

  8.  @calumclark1719  Yeah, mainly. Although fuel cells themselves are neither very famous because of there efficiency..

  9. So you think Hydrogen cars are more fun to drive than an EV? 😂 And no, EVs are not worse than ICE or hydrogen cars. They produce the lowest CO2 emissions of them all.

  10. @RandomShart Heating with hydrogen is dumb because it is way too inefficient. Heat-pumps are the only sensible solution.

  11.  @Gordanovich02  Yeah nice anecdote.. If they spend that much on electricity, they would spend multiple times of that amount on hydrogen.

  12. It’s not more carbon neutral at all. An EV pays for its production emissions within a few years.

  13. It's not. Hydrogen is ultra inefficient and therefore not clean at all. A Model 3 long range can drive just as far.

  14. Correct. There are no advantages.

  15. You have clearly no clue. It's just basic physics. Hydrogen cars make no sense and never will.

  16.  @simon1066  Excellent argument.

  17.  @simon1066  Fuel cell cars will always remain terribly inefficient due to the losses in production, compression, transport and conversion of hydrogen in the fuel cell. These steps can be improved to a certain degree but never eliminated.

  18. Excellent idea.

  19. Many cars automatically lock the doors.

  20. Hydrogen in ICE is even worse than fuel cells.

  21. Haha not at all.

  22.  @phillipparsons8930  Hydrogen cars are barely any lighter and they require to replace the fuel cell and tanks within 10 years. They also have lithium batteries on board. Early day EVs are not representable of current battery tech.

  23.  @phillipparsons8930  They are betting against physics.

  24. You are wrong. Hydrogen cars are simply a bad solution due to physics.

  25. It’s more the lack of efficiency that is the problem.
    1
  26. They are not.

  27. It has an electric motor powered by the hydrogen fuel cell.

  28. Not at all. Hydrogen will never catch up. It’s just simple physics.
