The biggest problem with H2 is leaks!
The molecule is so small, leaks are common, hard to find and maintain.
Probably not something you want in an car with all the vibration.

Don’t tell this to Exxon or Valero they use pure hydrogen gas by the millions of kilograms per year at every oil refinery they run. Some how that figured out how to contain this devil of a gas while using it at thousands of psi and 800 plus degree temps. Aluminum , Teflon, austenitic stainless I could go on and on needless to say the issue has been solved decades ago but luddites gonna ludd I guess.
