I'm sure hydrogen has a role to play, and of course people's usage patterns are all important in deterring what's best for them, but for me a Landy with a relatively short (150-200) mile range that I could charge up myself overnight would be far more useful than one with a 400 mile range for which I had to go miles to find a hydrogen fuelling station. The furthest I've been in a day in the Landy in the last 5 years was 90 miles down to Clevedon and back.
