According to the complaint, Toyota and its hydrogen partner, FirstElement Fuel (True Zero), intentionally concealed evidence of:
hydrogen leaks near hot engine components, creating explosion risks
sudden power loss, acceleration, and braking failures leading to collisions and injuries
a collapsing hydrogen infrastructure, leaving drivers stranded for weeks without access to fuel
aggressive financial collection tactics by Toyota Motor Credit Corporation, targeting owners of inoperable vehicles.
they are 10years too late to develop the tech, when ev has been making strides ever since. one of the shortlived X-FILE spinoffs where the 3 scientist(technicians in the orginal x-files) developed a hydrogen fuel cell tech, or equivalent they dint go on “patent/market it” because it, something along the lines of becoming to eco-destructive wanting(building more roads, infrastructure)
