So the questions are:

Price point
Fueling/Refueling costs and efficiency
Environmental impact. Is it ACTUALLY less pollutive, or is it shoving the burden elsewhere with zero net difference or worse?

I'll agree to the first two. The environmental impact seems less important.

A nice car I can refuel easily at a decent price point would be awesome.

Between gasification and reforming it could potentially be pretty cheap (equivalent to $2/gallon) but they insist on using PVs to power electrolysis so it's more like $10 per gallon equivalent.

Environmental impact

Yeah, this is my big question. Where is the hydrogen coming from and how much energy does it take to process, store, and transport it? Novel energy production tech is rarely efficient.
