A final note: Musk is older day by day, and his energy levels will not allow him to be as active as 10 years ago, he has to prioritise his efforts for his Mars dream, which, Space-X will be his major focus, and in coming years, if Tesla is still going down the pure battery EV path, there wouldn't be any significant breakthrough, expect Musk to step down and get someone to replace him at Tesla or appoint a vice-CEO for daily operations.

bullrider_21 SKYWalkers OP : With current technology, the hydrogen car would lose out to battery electric vehicles because of higher costs and lower efficiency.
SKYWalkers OP bullrider_21 : yup, that's the current obstacle, but compared to the degradation and waste of lithium batteries, it's less resource intensive.
