Which is why H2 is mainly being considered for larger, heavier vehicles:

Hummer have already built 2 large battery SUVs.


By 'built', you mean announced. They're 2023 models, with lots of details
as yet unknown.

And H2 trains makes no
bloody sense whatsoever - just electric the damn lines and if its too
expensive for overhead then they should recind that moronic rule about
no more 3rd rail and lay that instead.

This pilot, like many, demonstrates technical feasability. It does not
