If a hydrogen car is 50 MPH faster to a diesel car, why are we looking at electric?

JCB seems to have proved their point.

What relevance is speed? Incoherent sentence .?

 

[Munroast]

possibly all to do with the new land speed record ?

but do we need 1,600 BHP cars that can travel at 406.3 mph ? probably not that practical in todays cities - I'm sure i could get across edinburgh faster on my push bike

Because water is (basically ) free and it cannot be taxed or rationed or slapped with a faux "climate tax" like other forms of fuel.
Feel scammed yet

by that argument beer and whisky should be free but off course the raw ingredients although cheap do not make the end product
hydrogen requires somthing like 40% more energy to produce the same energy output as batteries
in otherwords 100kw to charge a battery will take 140 kw input iff hydrogen to convert
now the actual amount may be different but the extra energy wasted in conversion is significant
