The viability of hydrogen fuel cells is questioned, particularly their performance in cold climates where exhaust water can freeze and block tailpipes. A report from Latham, New York, describes ice balls forming in testing rigs at 10 degrees Fahrenheit. Despite infrastructure challenges, hydrogen pumps are being installed in locations like Union Station in Los Angeles to support vehicles like the Toyota Mirai.

A listener shares their experience leasing a 2018 Toyota Mirai hydrogen fuel cell vehicle in California. While the car offered significant rebates and free fuel, the infrastructure was plagued by offline stations and freezing fuel nozzles. The report concludes that hydrogen will not be a viable alternative to gasoline in the U.S. without a dedicated pipeline system.
