Electric cars are wonderful. I just see are too many logistical, infrastructure problems with them. Hydrogen is a much better solution.
Maybe there is room for both? Battery powered cars may not work in cold climates, but in California it may be perfect. And if Tesla can do this for battery powered cars, maybe someone else can make a viable hydrogen powered roadster become a reality.

I'm just impressed that the whole concept has come this far, and hope that this can show that there is a viable market for alternate fuel vehicles.

While I don't think there is a conspiracy by car manufacturers to block alternate fuel, I do think they are slow in changing the way they want to do business. Upstarts like this may compel them to hasten their own programs.
