That's actually the main problem with the fuel cell cars. The car itself may look like a nice neat little environment-saving package, but there is no natural source of hydrogen. We have to make it, and making it is hella expensive (platinum catalyst? whut?) and not very efficient. If the amount of energy used to power one car with hydrogen could actually power three cars with gas, what's the point?
