This car is in the feeling of intimacy, because Toyota will bring it to most auto shows. Unfortunately, there is no sales channel in Mirai in China, which also makes this brand-new powertrain model have a little mystery. In fact, a few years ago, this model has been sold in overseas markets. For example, the price in California is only about $60,000, while there are hydrogen refueling stations in Los Angeles and San Francisco. Many people use this model.
Toyota has officially released the information of the second generation Toyota Mirai. The new car will be built on the GA-L rear-drive platform with a cruising range of 650 kilometers. The new car will be sold in Japan, North America and Europe at the end of the year, but there is no news in China at present.
The appearance of the new car has a strong Toyota flavor. The large grille under the front face has the shadow of the Asian dragon, while the lines and shapes on the side are more like the high-end Lexus GS. The body size of 4973/ 1884/ 1468mm and the wheelbase of 29 18mm are larger than those of Lexus GS. The new car is equipped with 20-inch wheels, and the car is equipped with JBL stereo with 14 speakers. The overall central control layout and 12.3-inch central control are very Lexus, and it is estimated that the positioning is also a high-end model of Toyota.
The performance of fuel cell system and the capacity of hydrogen storage tank have better performance in cruising range. It is estimated that the new car will reach the cruising performance of 640 kilometers. Compared with current competitors, perhaps for Tesla models? S's precise strike.
So what are the advantages of hydrogen energy vehicles compared with the mainstream new energy vehicles that use batteries at present? The biggest advantage is that the emissions are more environmentally friendly, and the emissions are basically water, so the energy conversion efficiency is high. Compared with the charging of new energy vehicles for half an hour and one hour, the hydrogenation speed of hydrogen energy vehicles is basically the same as that of fuel vehicles, and the charging can be completed in 5 minutes at most. And the performance of battery life will not be affected by the external environment such as temperature, and the battery recovery of hydrogen fuel is much higher than that of electric vehicles.
In the current global automobile market, this kind of car is still rare. As the first mass-produced hydrogen fuel cell passenger car, Toyota Mirai's technology research and development is absolutely top-notch, and the basic global automobile patent Toyota accounts for a large part. Other brands have also developed this type of vehicles, such as Hyundai, Mercedes-Benz, Honda and Ford. Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are more used in commercial vehicles, and many countries use hydrogen fuel buses and trucks.
Therefore, there are still great obstacles to promote this kind of hydrogen fuel cell vehicle in China. First of all, the storage, transportation and production of hydrogen and the establishment of hydrogen refueling stations are the primary problems. However, in the domestic market where new energy has not been fully popularized and accepted, there is a new thing, no matter how good environmental protection and energy saving are, the public acceptance is still very low. How do you think?
