And the massively expensive catalyst materials. And their pathetic power output. And the fact that despite Hindenburg memes, compressed hydrogen is extremely dangerous. Go look up Thunderfoots video about compressed hydrogen and HFC cars. And before you have a musk fanboy seizure, please note that thunder foot hates Elon musk more than anyone else on YouTube. And also take note of the fact that calling someone a fanboy is not an argument and it doesn’t make you right.
Hydrogen cars already require a battery. Inevitably, the battery will get bigger and the fuel cell will get smaller and what do you know, it’s a BEV with a hydrogen range extender just like everyone told you.
Sharing batteries doesn’t work. That’s why Tesla dropped it even though the cars are designed to have batteries swapped in minutes. The only way for battery swaps to work is if truly nobody owns their own car. Which brings me to the next point.
Nobody wants to share their fucking car in America. Your car is your best friend in 90 percent of the country. Nobody wants dirty strangers fucking up their cars. Nobody wants the bed bugs, scabies, dandruff flakes and all the rest. Not to mention crumbs and garbage. It’s bullshit. There will never be widespread car sharing. People have been stroking themselves to this idea for a Fucking decade.
And when they started showing images of the car CATCHING INTRUDERS and opening your door for you, my bullshit alarm rang so loud it fucking exploded. We already depend on a pile of broken bullshit taped together with scotch tape. Taking the disaster that is the IOT and using it to open your door WITH YOUR CAR is a stupid and bad idea and everyone knows it except the idiots at Toyota PR.
Toyota has been making the wrong moves for decades. They INSISTED on making the murai even when it was clear that hydrogen wasn’t going to cut it. The EV revolution is here and all Toyota has is their pathetic failed hydrogen vehicle and the rav4 that they have cancelled and hamstrung multiple times. Meanwhile all the other big players have been busy getting pure EVs on the lot.
