It still seems to fall into the 2 main camps Alternate fuels and Electrics.
The Electric camp seem to discard or gloss over the fact that the production of the battery’s is an exceptionally dirty and toxic affair and charging still needs to rely on coal or nuclear power ( was down in Canberra early this year and the ACT government were talking up the fact that they were exporting power into the NSW grid from their green power generation BUT failed to mention that when the sun goes down and the wind drops they import coal fired power to run the state at night.)

HFCVs will have a niche but that is all. The primary reason is EVs total energy efficiency is much higher better than HFCVs, and therefore lower running costs. People will figure this out.

Hydrogen has got to be the way to go!
