More efficient manufacturing, falling battery costs and intense competition are lowering sticker prices for battery-powered models to within striking distance of gasoline cars.

Pretty sure that they tested those hydrogen tanks for safety and they really don’t cause issues. There’s loads of safety systems in there.
The biggest issue that I have with hydrogen tanks is that the hydrogen makes those tanks brittle over time. I recall that those tanks need replacing every 8 years. Again, that’s due to the hydrogen, it’s not due to how much it was driven.
There is often suggestions that an EV battery doesn’t last, see some comments here. Hydrogen tank issue is ignored for whatever reason.
EV batteries last way longer than conservative media likes to push on their viewers.
And once EVs become bigger and bigger in the market then battery repair will be more and more common. When batteries “die” it’s typcally just a small amount of cells that are super degraded, and the rest of the pack is otherwise fine. Swap a couple 18650s from a parts battery pack and you could get a pretty solid boost in range.
