Creating hydrogen is incredibly inefficient if you look at all the steps involved. It will be significantly more inefficient if you don't create hydrogen 24/7. Meaning, it'll cost significantly more to rely on a surplus of electricity. Meaning, it is way more expensive per mile or km driven.
The tank in an hydrogen car is only good for 8 to 10 years. You're replacing one bit that might fail with loads of other bits that might fail.
I think people aren't understanding how inefficient hydrogen is. Especially with the suggestion that hydrogen somehow is better than EVs, despite hydrogen cars often still having all the EV tech in a car.
