  • Toyota finally reveals details about the second-gen hydrogen Mirai machine

    2021 Toyota MiraiToyota was one of the first brands to introduce a mass-production electric vehicle back in 1997 with the debut of Prius Hybrid. Almost 20 years later, in 2015, the Mirai was unveiled – the first hydrogen fuel-cell electric vehicle. And as it seems, Toyota team is ready for the next step – presenting a revised version of the Mirai (meaning “future” in Japanese).

    The new futuristic machine is based on brand’s premium rear-wheel drive platform and debuts a dramatic design with tons of interior goodies. Expected to go on sale in late 2020, the vehicle will also feature Toyota’s hydrogen FCEV powertrain technology. Let’s find out more, shall we?

    At its core, Mirai is an electric vehicle, but it doesn’t need to be plugged in in order to charge. The FCEV system generates its own electricity onboard from hydrogen and oxygen, with water as the only emission.

    In terms of styling, new Mirai is based on a rear-wheel platform, which is a major departure from the original front-wheel drive version. This new setup allows for a highly rigid body that is lower, longer and wider, with its bold stance accentuated by exclusive 20-inch alloys. The design is definitely more aerodynamic, sexy and elegant.

    Furthermore, by taking advantage of the new platform, the engineering team has managed to ensure more interior space. Along with the cutting-edge technologies, the interior features more than enough leg- and headroom, all along with soft and luxurious ambience.

  • Toyota Back to the Future Mirai Concept or Who Brought the Outdated Gullwings Back?

    Toyota Back to the Future Mirai Front and Side ViewToyota Back to the Future Mirai is one of the cars exhibited at Toyota’s booth at the SEMA Show this week. Surprisingly enough, the car is called “Back to the Future” as a part of the Back to the Future 30th Anniversary Trilogy, and this obviously equals removing the four doors and adding gullwings. Considering they are definitely out of date, as modern and cool as they might look to some, this car (in my opinion) will never see anything but the red carpet on special events like this… No, not even in the near future.

    In fact, this vehicle ‘looks ready for the fourth dimension’, but if we were still living in the 80s. But if you are fan of the series (not like me unfortunately), then you should definitely go and see the Back to the Future-inspired Mirai.

    Toyota Back to the Future Mirai Gullwings Opened Rear View

    Despite the outdated and erroneous gullwings, this redesigned SEMA-bound Mirai has some advantageous features. First, I have to mention that the car is reworked by the specialists at MV Designz, who helped Toyota re-desing Doc Brown’s time machine.

    So what’s in this Mirai “time machine”? It includes a list of modifications that need to be addressed. Besides the conversion of the body style (from four-door to two-door), the car is defined by 19-inch custom “Infinity” LED wheels and tires, that look pretty good in the dark. By the way, there is a blue LED lightning added throughout the entire vehicle.

    What is more, MV Designz decided to equip the hybrid with custom air-ride suspension and applied brushed-aluminum paint scheme to the exterior. Other cool things about this Mirai concept feature heads-up destination clock display, integrated tablet replacing original equipment head unit as well as flux capacitor housed in a custom center console.

    Well, it seems not that bad after all… Or wait a minute! Aren’t these gullwings entirely inappropriate?

    Toyota Mirai and what it has to offer

    The Mirai is a four-door sedan, that offers a driving feel, completely different from what a combustion engine offers.

Now the Mirai consumes hydrogen, oxygen and fuel cell and emits only water vapor. Yes, we have already seen such technology, but we haven’t seen it work so well on a vehicle.
