And it sounds acceptable too:
Yeah, there’s that one too.
They do work, as BMW proved some years ago. But being made into reliable, cost efficient and marketable products is not something we’ve seen yet.

Then there’s the whole question of their efficiency compared to a fuel cell. ICEs are inherently limited by the (second?) law of thermodynamics. While fuel cells aren’t. How many people are going to buy the noisy, inefficient and complex powertrain, especially when it uses twice as much of an expensive fuel (equivalent to around $15/ga)?
