Hydrogen will not be ready for primetime anytime soon. It all comes down to infrastructure. Tesla has invested in a large network of supercharging stations and EV outlets are easily had at many businesses and government buildings. The same can not be said for hydrogen filling stations.

There other point is hydrogen is very costly to produce and transport. There is a lot of energy used to compress/decompress hydrogen for fuel. It is not the ideal solution others make it out to be.
