I mean, it’s a fuck up in hindsight… They clearly saw something in the technology that the rest of the market hasn’t. It IS a viable option for EV’s, but it feels at this point like it’s a failed standard akin to Betamax vs VHS or HD-DVD vs Blu-ray. We’ve got thousands of BEV chargers across America now, and about 50 hydrogen fueling stations (in California only). I don’t know if there is a market for both at this point… And there hasn’t been for a while. Unbelievable that they’re STILL sticking with it.
Toyota is seriously missing out on electric vehicles. Hybrids are overly complicated.
Agreed. Why drive around with two complete drivetrains.
Didn’t they fuck up by doubling down on fuel cells too?
