Toyota Unveils Hydrogen Powered Mirai Sedan

Mirai features internal combustion engines that are powered by hydrogen and emits water vapor instead of CO2, and it is capable of travelling 300 miles on a full tank.

The car will have a output of 3.1 kW/L, and can produce up to 153hp which can allow it accelerate from 0-60 in 9.0 seconds.

Unlike other zero emission vehicles Mirai's fuel cell stack combines hydrogen gas from tanks with oxygen to produce electricity that powers electric motor.

The car will be offered with an optional power take off (PTO) device which will allow the car to become a mobile generator to power home essentials for up to a week in emergency situation.

Toyota claims that it has done extensive crash testing on the vehicle to ensure passenger safety and the front, side and rear of the car has been designed to withstand impacts.

It will also feature lane departure alert, blind spot monitor, drive start control and automatic high beams for passenger safety.
