For me personally, the idea of needing to go to a station to fill up at a high cost to run an electric motor seems like added complexity when I can just plug in at home and not bother with that, and save a bunch of money for the convenience.
And also, we have no efficient way to produce hydrogen…that doesn’t start with hydrocarbons. Storage is also an issue. At that point it isn’t any better than batteries, and allows us to “transition” from fossil fuels with this intermediate step, like with methane.
