Toyota Mirai

Many argue that the future of the auto industry will be fueled by hydrogen, but that future may already be here.

Toyota is selling the new Mirai, which is an impressive sedan powere by hydrogen.

Design

The Mirai looks like any elegant sedan that would be produced by Toyota. At first glance you might assume it’s a Camry. W

Range

The key here is that the Mirai offers a range exceeding 400 miles on a single fill, dealing with the issue of range anxiety that is a common concern for electric vehicle owners.The electric motor also delivers instant torque, providing smooth acceleration and a quiet ride.

No long waits for refueling

One of the most impressive aspects of the Mirai is its refueling process. Unlike battery electric vehicles, which can take hours to recharge, the Mirai can be refueled with hydrogen in just five minutes. This presents a huge advantage for hydrogen vehicles over the electric cares we have today.

The Hydrogen Future

With the new Mirai, we can begin to see the potential of hydrogen as a sustainable fuel source. As the infrastructure for hydrogen refueling stations expands, we can start to contemplate a future where hydrogen-powered vehicles become commonplace. Since these cars only emit water vapor, they present an amazing advancement in the fight for a better climate. Hydrogen’s abundance and the ability to produce it using renewable energy sources make it a promising candidate to replace fossil fuels. Also, it may end up being a much better antlernative than the electric cars we have on the road today.

Don’t count out these hydrogen cars. This might be the best bet Toyota ever made!
