What it is saying (or was having a go at predicting) is that, as one of the techs that may eventually replace the IC engine, the FC-engined cars a couple of decades from now will be far more likely to use a 'fuel tank' holding methanol than one containing [adsorbed] hydrogen.

The methanol-to-hydrogen converter is also not cheap, but considering the high energy expense to stock pure hydrogen with safety it would still eventually remain as a middle-to-long term viable alternative
