Hydrogen-powered vehicles will be in Toyota showrooms across America by the end of this year, slightly ahead of schedule.
The car, currently named the Toyota Fuel Cell Vehicle, will cost about $78,000 at first, but pricing will drop to between $29,000 to $50,000 in the 2020s, according to the report. The next-generation vehicle was originally slated to be commercially available in 2015.

Hydrogen vehicles run on a fuel cell that mixes hydrogen with oxygen, powering the car’s electric motor, according to Toyota.

I know they're not making much off the car at $78K but that's Tesla money. I do like the concept and hope we can make this work for long haul vehicles, taxis, and delivery vehicles. Being able to fill up quickly is awesome.

Im sure there very little trunk in this car due to the cell ! why if its basically a electric car why cant they place the cell under the hood other then it may make the car front heavy. from the looks of the drawing it seems like there be room

Someone needs to do for hydrogen what Tesla did for EV - put stations everywhere. Infrastructure is the problem.
