Haha april fools. my bad didn't see the last sentence of the article till after I pressed the save button. But yea. I believe advancements in battery tech notably solid state lithium ion, which is being developed by Toyota and others will make fool cells obsolete long before they are cost completive with BEVs. Toyota has already announced the cost of their eco-box FCV will be $97,000 and cost $30 per 300 miles for fuel if you can find it. This price will not compete with say a Tesla model S with a fuel cost of $ 8 per 300 miles.
FCVs will always be more expensive than BEVs because they have a fuel cell and a lithium ion battery. There may be a market of FCV but I'm not interested.
