I wouldn't be holding your breath for hydrogen for the private car ... far too many massive hurdles.
As hugo7 (sort of) says buy the newest, most economical, lowest tax petrol-engined (or petrol hybrid) car that meets your needs in your budget. That way you are future proofed against ULEZ type tightening and you get the lowest reasonable running costs.

Hello hive mind - been a while…
Missus needs a new motor. Like a lot of other people, we need ULEZ compliance as well as ample space for transporting all manner of shit around.
Outgoing vehicle is a 2014 XC60 fuelled by the essence of Satan - like everyone else, we’re looking to future-proof ourselves but sadly don’t necessarily have the resources to get on Elon’s train (which isn’t necessarily the fix, more a sticking plaster. Largely because everyone knows that the hydrogen fuel cell is the actual answer), we are wanting to head in the hybrid petrol direction.
Neither of us want to finance a depreciating asset, but seem to have amassed fifteen large to spend on a new whip.
Tell me of your pearls of wisdom, your golden nuggets!
