Let's see if this breakthrough is scalable. 1200 km's and 10 min charging would definately make EV's more practical. I don't expect hydrogen-powered cars to become the standard anymore, especially since with those you'd still rely on 'gas' stations instead of producing your own energy.

Aging Wheels has an excellent video about the Toyota Mirai and hydrogen fuel in general.

Very interesting, thanks for sharing! Several reasons hydrogen powered cars aren't practical for passenger cars.
