    I’m not sure if you’re aware of this, but hydrogen fuel cell vehicles do have batteries. You can’t put energy captured from regen braking back into the fuel cell, so either you have a battery or you lose a third of your range.

    Fuel cell EVs can’t be fitted with charging plugs for religious reasons.
