Hey Toyota, how about installing a hydrogen a refilling station at everyone of your Toyota and Lexus dealerships from California to Texas. That way I could at least find one when I need a fill up.
As an owner of this car, I can confirm that it is amazing. Luxurious ride, beautiful inside and out, smooth as silk and super quiet. And, it doesn't look like a funky EV. Fueling infrastructure still needs work, but it's improving. Toyota is working on solid state battery that is denser and lighter than current batteries. Once they come out with that and tack it onto the Mirai with a plug in charger, we'll have a great, dual fuel hybrid. Raise the chassis, slot 3X/4X that battery under the car and it's game over. Easily 600+ mile range from an EV that can charge (at home or on the road) and refuel within 5 mins. Isn't that the holy grail? Forget brown or green hydrogen. Forget super charging. An EV that can make use of both fueling infrastructure is the perfect replacement for all ICE vehicles. It also allows existing gasoline infrastructure (gas stations) to be converted to hydrogen/electric charging stations. In addition, it encourages investment in either infrastructure, which accelerates our much needed migration away from fossil fuel.
While it's not Toyota's direct responsibility to build hydrogen machines, you NEED some way to make hydrogen more accessible if you want this line to succeed
@@ChristianRoland7 Obviously you get this message wrong. I'm big Toyota fan. When Toyota make electric Corolla I would buy one. Until that I gonna drive my hybrid and be happy. Toyota is the best car maker in the world.
I see hydrogen vehicles like the Toyota Mirai becoming a future fave when the high price tag eventually drops to an affordable level. Of course, with hydrogen gas stations not being a wide concept yet, that won't happen for some time.
Thank you Toyota for continuing hydrogen research. Electric only is not the future whether people like it or not. The power grid can barely handle people using their air conditioners here in california it's wild they think that compounding high electricity usage by houses etc will be able to even add 20% more electric cars to the grid without severely having to revamp our power issues.
Fuel cell is also electric propulsion only. It also in fact have batteries.. just much smaller. The power grid argument is moot with automatic charge scheduling. Average energy per day by a normal family car extracted from the grid is fairly small compared to weekly air conditioning power usage.
I seeing now 2021 every japanese auto design it’s getting boring now..there’s no refresh interior exterior even this Toyota same as well looks so old design it’s really boring
I'm not really interested in electrics but these are interesting. With the hydrogen it's gives you unlimited range vs. an electric. I think these will completely replace electrics when the hydrogen infrastructure is built for it.
@@HeelerHouse wireless charging?? How much energy will be lost in that process A mobile phone heats so much during wireless charging what will happen in a car
So wait, so no smog or other harmful emissions? But hydrogen is refined natural gas, still pulled from oil rigs, like the one in the Gulf of Mexico, which has an epic deadzone from the last spill? So it’s harmless!
Interesting that Toyota continues investing in hydrogen fuel cell technology. With a plug in hybrid, the lithium based battery has a well understood limited lifespan. How’s the lifespan of a fuel cell compare to that of a lithium battery?
It's inferior to the 4860 cell batteries that will be coming out soon. Blue hydrogen is just like CNG but with a fancy name. Toyota is extremely stubborn with this technology and will never leave it
@@gvi341984 so what happens once majority of Lithium is in control of Chinese manufacturers and they demand higher money for their lithium? will you pay that extra just because? and guess what happens to all the gas stations in the U.S.? can they not be changed to hydrogen stations and still be in business? who is stubborn now?
@@gvi341984 if it requires charging using electricity generated from fossil energy, it is still not environmentally friendly like fuel cell harvested using solar or wind energy.
Sacrifice range? Only the cheapest BEVs on the market right now sacrifice range, most have hundreds of miles of range similar to many ICE vehicles. Recharging time is irrelevant unless you're on a road trip or don't have access to home charging.
@@MylesV a lot of people take road trips and also many people don't have access to home charging. For them, the FCEV is their only zero emission option.
The *styling and intent suggests an alternate nameplate: It exists, directly between Toyota and Lexus OR eclipses them both. Neatly contemporary-futuristic, but far from outlandish or unobtainable!*
This car isn't even sold in my town. Why is that? Is it because Roswell New Mexico is always behind the times? Funny how this is on Toyota USA, but it's not even sold in a town that is inside of the USA.
- Blue hydrogen is when natural gas is split into hydrogen and CO2 either by Steam Methane Reforming (SMR) or Auto Thermal Reforming (ATR), but the CO2 is captured and then stored When will Toyota stop with this failure? Toyota is not taking battery cars seriously. Toyota has 0 market share in electric cars.
So this car uses electricity to compress and distill hydrogen, then you put it in your car, which converts it back to electricity. Why not just use a battery built in and skip the hydrogen?
Only two companies building hydrogen cars. Why, because fossil fuel companies own hydrogen infrastructure and production. It was an old buddy thing. EVs doing 600km range with 18 min to 80% fill ups , most people fill up their ev at home anyway. I use charge station like 5 times a year. The rest is 1 minute a week of my time at home to plug in. Oh and hydrogen is more expensive than petrol.
Fuel cell tech is facing a lot of critique. I really hope you people know what you're doing. It would be a huge shame if you end up going out of business after going so far because of investing in the wrong tech.
They could make this car as fast as tesla on a performance trim by putting bigger battery or supercapacitors but, I'm worried that the cost will be too high lol.
Surely all the petrol stations could be converted to Hydrogen,the infrastructure is already there.....That Mirai is a vast improvement over the last one.
This is a serious question for the eco-minded people. It emits water vapor as an emission which seems innocuous enough. But apparently water vapor is a serious greenhouse gas that HOLDS HEAT. If this technology was implemented on widescale, wouldn't we just trade one gas for another? Seriously I'm not trying to be a naysayer, I'm trying to understand how this would help in the long run. Ok, no drilling for oil and the associated issues with that, but you have get hydrogen somehow.
@@PatrickHolensaber They beg to differ with you. IN fact they refer to it as the "most abundant greenhouse gas." www.nrdc.org/stories/greenhouse-effect-101
The water vapor emitted from a billion fuel cell EV would make a negligible difference in the world's total water vapor. Why? Because that water vapor condenses into rain and does not remain vapor indefinitely.
Now we just need a GR version of this car, and Toyota has my full respect 4 this car (I’ve never been a believer that the future only belongs 2 electric power, and this proves that hydrogen can hang with the best EVs). Also, pls follow through with the hydrogen engine in the Fuji Corolla. I want 2 c that

Hydrogen is produced using fossil fuels and is terribly inefficient, you can go twice the distance in an EV with the same energy.

Let us know when hydrogen stations become ubiquitous. Until then, this car is useless in most countries.

Such an exciting concept. As soon as it becomes cheaper, I can absolutely see hydrogen becoming a major fuel.
@timemachine_194 you think ppl were saying same things about EVs before Ellen Musk? The future doesnt progress linearly
@timemachine_194 California will be the leader in Hydrogen. but why worry right now if you get 6 years of free hydrogen

The refueling infrastructure is up to the government or private sector, Toyota is a mobility company not a fueling company.
A very usefully car. If you can afford one then you can even drive it in some parts of California because there are five hydrogen stations there.
Instead of focusing on a 2nd gen Mirai they should've taken that r&d budget to build more stations.....tsk tsk
