Doesn't hydrogen use fuel cells anyway? Fuel cells aren't ICE.

Edit: yep, fuel cells. So this was bullshit edit so automakers can keep selling their ICE.

High pressure hydrogen is a thing too and regular petrol engines can be converted to run on it. Toyota already did it with an old corolla and a rally Yaris https://mag.toyota.co.uk/restomod-ae86/ https://mag.toyota.co.uk/hydrogen-gr-yaris-showcases-experimental-engine/ so not fully shutting the door but still a big hindrance.

ICE with ideal transmission is less efficient, than real fuel cell + PMSM.
