There is a degree of "They would say that wouldn't they" but they are working with a number of the big automotive firms. Sadly, they weren't allowed to tell us which ones.

That is one of the most intelligent statements I have seen on the subject for some time though I would add to that fuel cell category touring cars and business cars that need to travel long distances. For the same reason I have some doubts about light commercials, a courier or a tradesman does not want to have to stop in the middle of his day to search for a recharge point and wait for the vehicle to charge.
