Just see/ read today.

At a workshop day at BHM in February 2019 we discussed an electric MOG. Far away from something we could think about.
But others:

I don't see the point.

There will always be gasoline, it may get more expensive, but it will be there, if only for legacy vehicles.
I would never do that to a Morgan, but once hydrogen is more generally available I'd certainly do a conversion to the fueling system of the big V8.

This is the starting point....

They also offer hydrogen generation plants, make your own at home!!

Really wink

More useful would be battery energy remaining - like a giant fuel gauge. This would allow it to act like a tacho in reverse when you booted it innocent

The fuel gauge does show the battery charge, according to what they say in that video.
