That's why I think plain electric cars are a better way to go than fuel cells. Instead of using electricity to generate hydrogen which is then converted back to electricity, why not use the electricity directly? The only reason I can think of is storage (I'm guessing fuel cells with a hydrogen tank have a larger capacity than even lithium-ion batteries), but I'd rather sacrifice some range than drive with a 10,000 psi tank under the backseat.
