    Would the difference, even considering a somewhat larger battery, be that significantly different compared to an EV or an ICE?

        Any vehicle with two power sources is, by definition, exceptionally inefficient and therefore, unnecessarily expensive. I personally am eagerly awaiting safe hydrogen storage so vehicles can truly be zero emission. Toyota just announced they’re close; GM tried for decades and gave up. We’ll see…
