Why buy a Hyundai with 300 mile range? Because it’s available today. And if I’m concerned enough about missing out on upcoming tech, Hyundai/Kia have good lease terms that give you the option of buying out or trading up at the end if the tech improves that much by then.

But yeah, I’m still annoyed with them championing hydrogen that hard when it was super easy to see how limited it would be compared to BEV for general purpose commuting, and how much easier the infrastructure would be to start up (a small amount of BEV infra will easily support a small amount of BEVs, but a small amount of hydrogen infra will support basically nothing at all since you can’t refill at home)
