Such a shame. Fuel cell EVs seem like such a good idea according to Toyota, but the reality of living with one seems pretty terrible, not to mention the problems with producing hydrogen cleanly and making it available affordably and conveniently.

Then why the struggle to deploy new fast charging infrastructure? All we're doing is avoiding mass transit and subsidizing the battery industry.

What makes you think DC charging infrastructure takes anything away from transit? Both can happen and are happening simultaneously.

It's competition for passengers. If it's too easy and inexpensive for people to travel long distances in their cars, why bother with mass transit? I don't know about California, but here on the East coast, chargers keep popping up, the highways are getting wider, and there's barely any new rail service coming.
