but are hydrogen cars really a solved thing? theres no infrastructure, like at all, to cater for them. while there is early, but increasing infrastructure for EV's. If the choice was between hydrogen and petrol absolutely, roll that shit out today, like I mentioned im not against hydrogen power, but EV kind of has the momentum and logic behind it. With rooftop solar an EV is a no brainer, especially if you can charge during daytime
Lack of infrastructure is the only issue left. The problem with BEVs is that not everyone can own one or afford one. People who insisting on BEVs because they are doable now are doing what the people who pushed for diesel cars did a decade ago. It is just a short-term idea that will eventually backfire.
