I lost the article on Toyota and Honda, but it was pretty good, then I saw this article on Hyundai... Funny that in one article Elon Musk says this is stupid... (he is stupid for saying that...) ...because it's not using a battery, it's really a generator... (what's wrong with that? ...other then competition for his polluting over priced batteries...
In fact if you believe the Fulford stuff this is the push into the market of the water car, remember Japan rolled out fully designed water cars? So these may be the transition vehicles, and if that's the case... Who cares if we don't have "energy distribution controlling" hydrogen stations... We won't need them! (ultimately) ... They just have to create an efficient water electrolyzing system... and all the pieces are in place... Direct feed water to hydrogen/oxygen.... direct to fuel cell.... direct to energy generation.... awesome!!!!
So this makes perfect sense to me... Let's see who is going to try and stop Japan this time around from giving the world zero emission hydrogen cars (US, Canada, Britain???? via EU ... who knows... this should be interesting, this brings Ballard back into the picture, this market is getting ripe for commercial penetration... Did someone say the Rockefellers exited the oil industry??!!

On Wednesday, Hyundai said it is making its Tucson FCEV available to customers in Vancouver starting in 2015 on a three-year lease at $599 per month.
In an attempt to woo users with something new, but somewhat familiar, the fuel cell Tucson is based on Hyundai’s traditional, gasoline-powered Tucson crossover vehicle
...The Tucson FCEV works by drawing oxygen and combining it with stored hydrogen in a fuel cell pack that creates electricity for powering the motor and charging the battery.
There is only a single hydrogen refuelling station in the Lower Mainland that is capable of filling 700 bar, or what is considered a full tank. It’s operated by Powertech Labs Inc and located in Surrey. There are a few other hydrogen filling stations, but most only fill to 350 bar, Romano said.
