The Mirai’s Technological Heart: Fuel Cell Power

At the core of the Toyota Mirai lies its fuel cell powertrain. Unlike battery electric vehicles (BEVs) that rely solely on battery power, the Mirai uses hydrogen gas, stored in high-pressure tanks, to generate electricity. This process happens through a chemical reaction within the fuel cell stack, combining hydrogen with oxygen from the air to produce electricity, heat, and water vapor – the only emission. This technology offers a compelling alternative to combustion engines and even BEVs, depending on various factors including infrastructure and individual needs.
