Toyota Mirai: India’s first fuel cell EV launched with a 1300 km range. Union Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari has launched a pilot project for Mirai Hydrogen-based Advanced Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV).
The Toyota Mirai is powered by a hydrogen fuel cell battery pack and is capable of providing a range of up to 600 km on a full charge.
Toyota now holds the Guinness World Record for the longest range achieved by any fuel cell electric vehicle. The Toyota Mirai has covered a distance of 1,300 km by filling hydrogen once in two days. here are the Toyota Mirai FCEV Price and Range Details
The used car is the second-generation Toyota Mirai. FYI, the Toyota Mirai was the first production fuel cell electric vehicle available for retail sale in North America.
What is a Fuelcell Electric Vehicle?
Fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) are powered by hydrogen. They are more efficient than conventional internal combustion engine vehicles and produce no tailpipe emissions
For the record, it was driven by Wayne Gedes, a professional hypermiler from America. In order to make the driving experience as realistic as possible, the Mirai was primarily operated during peak hours around Southern California.
On the first day, the car covered a distance of 761.22 km and the rest of 589.6 km was driven in 2 days. The 1,359.9 km ride was covered by consuming just 5.65 kg of hydrogen.
While the BEV takes time to charge, the FCEV can be refueled in just 5 minutes. The 2021 Toyota Mirai comes with three onboard cylinders for storing hydrogen.
It comes with a peak power output of 172 hp and 300 Nm of maximum torque. This car can accelerate from 0 to 100 kmph in 9.0 seconds. Mirai generates electricity by combining hydrogen with oxygen from the outside air.

How much does one single charge cost
What would be the cost of Hydrogen refilling?
Hydrogen price will be around 900 – 1000 per kg.
These vehicles should not be encouraged as they deplete atmospheric oxygen. Encourage only electric vehicles with sodium-ion batteries.

Why were FCEVs not popular in California?
EVs made a late start and are now selling like hot cakes. FCEVs are hard to find though they have been in the market for nearly 25 years.
But in a mere 12 years, Electric vehicles have caught the imagination of the world.
Uneducated fellow.. when water is electorlysed hydrogen and oxygen is released. hydrogen fuel cell combines it back to give water. where is oxygen getting depleted.
