CanadaPlusOkay, but then why not just go with battery cars? You’re the only person I’ve heard say hydrogen cars will make a comeback, if that is what you’re saying.
Hydrogen cars are dead and EVs won already. This pro hydrogen position has only ever benefited the fossil industry, and is laguhable considering the state of the industry in 2026 (gestures broadly at China). Their arguments are simply disingenuous (e.g. obviously efficiency doesn’t matter because bikes are more efficient than cars, so let’s all agree to use inefficient cars). Hydrogen will be a thing for some industries, but not cars.
They’re creative, original arguments (AKA out there), but I haven’t seen any evidence of malice.
Edit: So much of what comes at you on Lemmy is the same tired canards over and over again. If someone wants to say hydrogen is actually winning, or I dunno, that Abraham Lincoln never existed, that’s fascinating.
You’re a bit less cynical than I am, so I applaud you for that. I’m not sensing mailce per se, but I’ve noticed the same pro-hydrogen content for years from this particular user and it’s getting pretty wild considering the massive, observable growth in the EV sector and the proven viability. There will always be folks tilting at windmills, however. For me, I’m going to continue promoting walkable/bikable/transit focused communities with EVs as a backstop.
