The Toyota Mirai is a Hydrogen car, as well as what the Nikola truck aims to be. Curious on the viability of this over electric/gas.
One of reasons I prefer hydrogen fuel is When hydrogen is used in fuel cells to generate electricity, the only byproducts are water vapor and heat, making it an environmentally friendly alternative to fossil fuels.
