I've driven several Fuel Cell Cars and the BMW H7. Overall, I am more impressed wit hthe Fuel Cell car's performance, I guess because they are lighter and feel more nimble. As for the BMW, while it rides nice, and there is no noticable difference between driving with gas or H2, save a monor vibration, for a car of that size and sature (and considering it is a V-12), I was disspointed by the apparent lack of power. 250 some odd HP, doesn't seem to cut it in a 12 Cylinder luxo-yacht anymore. Not to say that the H7 isn't any good; it's a fine car. Frankly, I think that the combination of H2 ICE and FCEV cars will jumpstart the H2 infrastructure together. What I can't understand; since the heavy crude used by refineries continues to need more H2 for processing, why not use the H2 directly in cars?

It is the cleanest and it is homeland made,seem to be our future! Anything about hydrogen becoming more popular should be very much welcome,specially linked to wind and solar power.
