They're still electric cars at their base. They just use a hydrogen reactor in lieu of a battery to power the motors.

I don't see a future where hydrogen supplants electric cars, unless there's some revolution in storage technology for it. In that case, progress in battery tech is more likely.

Is there even a possibility of better storage tech for hydrogen? It's not like batteries where you can use different elements in the battery out of different things. It has to store hydrogen. The processes surrounding that can be made more efficient, but the storage is just a physical limitation, not chemical.

not really. It's a gas. and a really low density one at that. physics is a bitch

I don't think there is, but I also gave up on predicting the future a while ago.
