Naysayer Alert – the hydrogen red herring

My Electric Car

More significantly it must be realized that hydrogen, just like a battery, is not an energy source in itself, but simply a means of storing energy. The only by products are water and a fair degree of heat, the latter indicating a degree of inefficiency and wasted energy.

Road Test: 2021 Lexus NX 300h F Sport Black Line Special Edition

Clean Fleet Report

The four-wheel power-assisted disc anti-lock brakes are part of the regenerative charging system that converts kinetic energy into electric energy and stores it in the battery when applying the brakes or coasting. There are eight cup holders throughout the cabin, but the door pockets are small and can at most handle a small water bottle.
