The batteries we have today are absolute garbage in terms of efficiency…solar is free energy, hydrogen is the most abundant thing in the universe, and burns clean.
Battery technology that we have today is leagues ahead of liquid hydrogen ICE vehicles. You would need a trailer full of liquid hydrogen to get decent range. But that would not matter much because you would only get a fraction of the way through that tank before having to replace the fuel pump.
Engineering Explained has a few videos on the liquid hydrogen Corolla. It is only being looked at for race cars because of how quickly liquid hydrogen boils off.
Did you even watch your own videos? First off some YT claimed engineer isn’t a legit source of doubt, second the fuel pump was being used during a 24 hour race… that’s like claiming that rubber tires require 3 sets during a endurance race and we should scrape rubber and go back to wood.
Hydrogen ICE is a legit tech and will be the future, unless they develop a cheaper, longer lasting and quicker charge battery. ICE is here to stay for a while. Batteries cannot do what they do.

Those things are absolute garbage in terms of efficiency. They are not viable.

While I applaud Toyota for researching this avenue, I don’t expect much of it to be useful for the average commuter.
