Hydrogen vs. Battery Electric Cars

I'm fairly disappointed by this video :( Lots of inaccurate and/or highly biased comparisons are being made for personal vehicles. To be clear, I think FCEVs can have a very important place in the future. Especially in heavy duty purposes. 

Take for instance the claim that *most* EV's being sold today have a range of between 100-200 miles. Given that Most EV's sold today are Teslas which have a minimum range of ~250 miles, and a max range at 405 (Model S Long Range) that's not exactly accurate. Even if you break it down by models, almost all the models across all brands sold the US have 200+ miles of range. 

Then lets look at the vehicle test weight graph you show which is from a 2009 study... There have been a lot of advancements in EV technology since 2009. But it claims a Fuel Cell EV has a range of 400 miles while staying the same weight showing about 1250kg, while a 400 Mile EV would require a weight of 3000Kg. 

But if you look at actual vehicles the Toyota Mirai weighs in at ~1950 Kg with a range of 420 miles. The Tesla Model S Long Range comes in at 2073Kg with 405 miles of range. That's a difference of 100Kg not 1,750 Kg. 

The point of, "If we plugged all the BEV's in at the same time the grid would fail" Like what? If we ran electrolysis (the only green way to create Hydrogen) for enough hydrogen to fuel all the cars the grid would fail too. 

"If the electrical grid was down you could still fuel your hydrogen car" Sure, in theory. In reality the pumps needed to fuel EV's would also be out of power and you wouldn't be able to fuel your car, as often happens at gas stations during blackouts. 

While talking about pollution in a BEV vs FCEV video it makes it seem like FCEVs are cleaner than BEV's but the reality is right now FCEVs hydrogen comes from fossil fuels and there is zero real infrastructure to create it via electrolysis. Where as BEVs can be used already off renewable energy depending on where people live and what's powering their grid. 

Frankly, this video in my eyes ruins a lot of your credibility in the education space as it is *highly* biased against EV's. The most logical rational for that is Toyota makes FCEVs and are lagging far behind in making BEVs.
