JB, the following quote from the article, shows its negative bias, turning a positive into a negative. The Toyota Mirai has only 5 kg of hydrogen, because that's all you need to get an amazing range of 402 miles (Source https://www.caranddriver.com/toyota/mirai), not because that's all they could fit on the Toyota Mirai. How many gasoline cars do you know can travel 402 miles on 5 kg of gasoline, equivalent to just 1.32 gallons of gasoline? Let me repeat that, the Toyota Mirai can travel 402 miles on just 5 kg of hydrogen or the equivalent of 1.32 gallons of gasoline. Again, the article turns a positive into a negative.

Quote from the article:
"A kilogram of hydrogen as a gas at room temperature at sea level takes up the same volume as 11,900 liters of or 3,144 US gallons of gasoline. That means it has to be compressed to 700 or 800 times the pressure of the atmosphere at sea level before it’s useful in a car. .... And even at that, the energy density by volume is so low you can only get five kilograms of hydrogen, the equivalent of five gallons of gas, into a Toyota Mirai. Fuel cells in cars are more efficient than internal combustion engines, so it’s more like 10 gallons worth of distance, but it’s still not very much."
