stevestevesteve,

Regardless of any other issues, I just don't have a desire for a hydrogen car. I like the concept of a single drivetrain serving a "hybrid" (fuel cell is a lot simpler than a whole ICE) but a big draw of going electric for me would be never having to go to a filling station again and this definitely doesn't solve that problem

Public fast charging is the same experience as a filling station. Except it takes longer.

bigschnitz,

I can also do it overnight at home once a week. I'm a mechanical minded guy and love the combustion engine, but I can't see it having mainstream appeal once people realize how much more convenient electric is for a daily commuter.

The car in the article is a PHEV. It can do the same thing.

bigschnitz,

Yeah but why bother with lugging around a combustion engine you're not using? It's just weight, cost and maintenance effort.

I'm one of those dinosaurs who refuses to buy any car with less than 3 pedals, but even I can see that in the near future, electric drivetrains will better suit most people.

It’s not a combustion engine. It’s a fuel cell.
