Hydrogen is much more efficient and safer than the internal combustion engine. There are however still several problems dealing with storage and infrastructure that must be worked out.

Investors are weary to build up an infrastructure for a vehicle that is yet to be fully worked out and customers are weary to buy a vehicle without proper infrastructure. There are many solutions that are on the market including; nickel hydride batteries, sodium borohydride storage, and fuel processors. New legislations is slowly trying to make the switch from the internal combustion engine to the hydrogen
