What nonsense.
Battery power is a technology that is continuing to grow with billions being poured into it from every industry imaginable.
The only people who want garbage like hydrogen are those who want to maintain the status quo of fuel being supplied by a few big producers.

You're just promoting BEV propaganda. And being a stooge of the Chinese government, the only group that even benefits from BEVs displacing all local car production. It is not a revolutionary technology. It is an obsolete idea from the 19th century. It is a greenwashing scam to think it has any real merit.
Meanwhile, hydrogen is made from water and represent an actual green technology.

What local car production? There is none.
I want a BEV car because I can charge it for free with the solar panels on my roof. That benefits me not china.

The goal is to eliminate all car companies that isn't controlled by China.
You don't own any of the supply chain that provides the batteries and solar panels. The West barely makes solar panels because China's strategy already succeeded.
No one sold a BEV a dozen or so years ago. People are just complaining rather than pushing for change.

do you actually know how hydrogen power works? hint: its not just chucking water into some sort of hydrogen engine

Hydrogen is electrolyzed from water. It is basically a battery made from water. It is a much better idea than a battery made from expensive metals that have to be mined in vast quantities.

and you must surely be aware that there are significant challenges in making this a commercially viable consumer technology, right?
im not anti hydrogen at all, its actually one of the main reasons i invested in FMG, but being against electric cars because you think hydrogen is better is frankly weird given that electric cars exist now and are starting to become more affordable for everyday people
