The main benefit of using hydrogen is that the vehicle doesn't release carbon as petrol driven vehicles do. With a greatly reduced carbon footprint, these vehicles contribute less to the greenhouse effect and pollution.

Cleaner ways of generating hydrogen in the future will possibly make the advantages more definite.
