    Until the laws of thermodynamics and conservation of mass/energy and certain physics laws are repealed, hydrogen as a motive power "solution" is doomed. why throw away FOUR times the energy to move you the same distance a BEV would do? How can researchers still be serious about H2 for cars?

    Sure, 60% efficiency is the quote from the article...but OVERALL ('cause ya gots to make the H2 first)...it's a loser when compared to battery electric cars. Check out either Tesla's website (Tesla Motors) or darrelld's (Darell's Electric Vehicle Page). It's all there.
