Japan's hydrogen car sales fall as refueling stations disappear

valor.globo.com (Portuguese)

Japan's hydrogen car infrastructure is shrinking, causing sales to plummet and leaving owners stranded. The number of hydrogen refueling stations has dropped significantly, with 90% of Japan considered a "gap area." Many stations close early, and some don't operate daily. High vehicle costs, reduced subsidies, and declining global interest from automakers further hinder the adoption of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
