Coupe-Inspired Design Modernizes All-New 2021 Toyota Mirai Sedan ...

The Toyota Mirai is not a new addition to the Toyota lineup--it has actually been in select dealerships for over four yeas. However, the 2021 version is a stunning redesign of this hydrogen-powered electric vehicle.

2021 Toyota Mirai Concept Review

In 2015, Toyota debuted the Mirai as the first production hydrogen fuel-cell electric vehicle (FCEV) offered for sale in North America. 2021 brings about the unveiling of the second-generation Mirai, which is now a premium sedan focused on cutting-edge design, technology, and driving performance.

For 2021, Toyota has made the Mirai a rear-wheel drive (RWD) vehicle while the previous version was built on the front-wheel drive (FWD) platform. This made the sedan longer, lower, wider, and stronger than the outgoing model. Toyota targeted a 30-percent increase in range, which would place the new sedan at about 400 miles of driving range. In addition, the 2021 Toyota Mirai specs include a length of 4,975 mm, width of 1,885 mm, and height of 1,470 mm.

What is a Fuel-Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV)

As a FCEV, the 2021 Toyota Mirai is basically a "plug-less" electric vehicle. There is no need to charge the battery. Instead, the FCEV's tank is filled, except with hydrogen rather than gasoline. As the hydrogen combines with oxygen, it produces electric current and heat (which power the vehicle) and water, which is the only byproduct.

Coupe-Inspired Design Modernizes All-New 2021 Toyota Mirai Sedan ...

The 2021 Toyota Mirai's clean and modern profile was inspired by coupes, but the sedan style makes it more approachable to all types of buyers. The exterior has a bolder stance and is more aerodynamics. It also features a brand-new blue colour never seen before on a Toyota vehicle.

Sliding into a 2021 Mirai feels like sliding into the lap of luxury. Sleek styling, high-quality materials, modern layout make the interior feel futuristic but welcoming. The Mirai includes a standard 8-inch digital combination meter and available digital rearview mirror, as well as a 12.3-inch touchscreen with navigation and a 14-speaker JBL sound system.

Drivers wanting a fun, futuristic, and environmentally conscious vehicle will be anxiously awaiting the specs of the 2021 Toyota Mirai.

The Concept

The Toyota Mirai debuted in 2015 as the first production hydrogen fuel-cell electric vehicle (FCEV) offered for sale in North America. As an FCEV, the Mirai is essentially a "plug-less" electric vehicle, which means it does not require charging. Instead, drivers fill the FCEV's tank with hydrogen rather than standard gasoline. As the hydrogen combines with oxygen, it produces electric current and heat, which powers the vehicle, and water, which is the only byproduct. This differs from other vehicles that release harmful fumes into the air.

The Redesign

The 2021 Toyota Mirai will be available at more dealerships compared to its first-generation predecessor. The redesign includes the switch from a front-wheel drive (FWD) platform to a rear-wheel drive (RWD) platform, which makes the sedan longer, lower, wider, and stronger than the outgoing model. The specifications show a Mirai that has a length of 4,975 mm, width of 1,885 mm, and height of 1,470 mm.

The Exterior

The Toyota Mirai is a sedan, but its clean and modern profile was inspired by, and reminds drivers of, coupes. However, the sedan style makes it more approachable by buyers looking for an environmentally friendly sedan. The sedan offers an aerodynamic design and bold stance, in addition to a brand-new blue colour never seen before on a Toyota.

The Interior

Luxurious is the only word that feels appropriate when describing the 2021 Toyota Mirai. The interior is futuristic but not off-putting and is designed with high-quality materials and features a modern layout. A standard 8-inch combination metre and available digital rearview mirror complement a 12.3-inch touchscreen that features navigation.

The Performance

In terms of performance, actual numbers are not known, but Toyota targeted a 30-percent increase in range, which equals approximately 400 miles of driving range on a tank of "fuel."

Drivers wanting a fun, futuristic, and environmentally conscious vehicle should look for the Toyota Mirai at the Penticton Toyota dealership.
