Mr Brewer wrote on X, formerly Twitter: \u201cI\u2019ve said all along hydrogen powering batteries is the only possible future, Governments need to invest in hydrogen technology urgently. Confusing the car market with rash decisions is not the way forward.\u201d<\/p>\n
When asked by a member of the public if he was \u201cwriting off synthetic fuels as an alternative\u201d, the Wheeler Dealers star admitted it was still an option.<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cNo, also a great alternative.. all options should be explored but make sure we are ready before they implement.\u201d<\/p>\n
After the Government decided to delay the ban by an extra five years, Mr Brewer took to social media to admit he was not surprised by the call.<\/p>\n

They are gonna kick the can down the road.\u201d<\/p>\n He later doubled down on his calls for officials to consider alternative methods over the next decade including hydrogen power.<\/p>\n Mr Brewer told Car Dealer Magazine\u2019s YouTube channel: \u201cThere are lots more interesting things coming through alternative fuels.<\/p>\n \u201cFormula One will be running alternative fuels in a couple of years’ time.<\/p>\n \u201cWe can grow fuels these days. It doesn’t have to be fossil fuels, they can come from a different source.<\/p>\n \u201cThere’s hydrogen energy which we are not really harnessing it the correct way we should be\u2026 Hydrogen charging batteries that propel cars down the road.<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s inevitably got to be where we are going to go in the long-distance future.\u201d<\/p>\n
