Not even if we reinvent the engine, since the main problem is hydrogen storage. Remember those BMW prototypes with a regular engine converted to hydrogen?

There is a future for the wave disc engine in generators, due to it's small size, high efficiency, low weight, simplicity and low cost.
And we all know generators have a future in electric cars.
Perhaps a wave disc engine would go well with a CVT, varying the output speed at a fixed input rotation.

For a fixed-load operation, gas turbines might be a more realistic approach instead of those, let's say, "unconventional" engine designs.
