Hydrogen fuel cells generate electricity driving electro motors
So this is an EV as well, just a different kind of battery

@Tracos yes! But without ANY rare earth materials which is a humongous environmental problem both in mining as well as recycling!

@DeWayfarer true
Problem for now is that most hydrogen is made from natural gas at scale. So hydrogen gets at peak performance when it gets made by separating water through clean electricity
It will happen and possibly quite soon

@Tracos what most don't understand is this process doesn't use all the hydrogen. Yes some of it converts to water. Yet what is leftover gets reused over and over until depleted. Then you need to put in more hydrogen and oxygen.
The output is water! Not exactly pure enough to drink yet it can easily be use as grey water!
