> As the first plug-in hybrid fuel-cell car, the Honda can travel 29 miles on a 17.7 kWh battery, before switching to a 4.3-kilogram tank of onboard hydrogen, for a total range of about 290 miles.
290 miles, I could be mistaken but are not many pure battery cars already within that range?
Maybe there is some viable applications for space like potential rocket refueling?
Sure but there are cases where it just does not make sense.
Case in point, regular sized everyday cars.
There might be viable applications for semi-trucks that provide an economical advantage over batteries. There might be good use cases related to energy storage & transportation, aviation, and water craft. There is also likely other industrial applications I'm not familiar with.
God Honda will not quit on Hydrogen.

Don’t we want hydrogen in a Net Zero world? Finding enough uses for it will help develop the market.
