Hydrogen Innovation: A Plug-less EV with Zero Tailpipe Emissions
Unlike traditional battery-electric vehicles (BEVs), the Toyota Mirai doesn’t need to be plugged in. Instead, it generates electricity onboard using compressed hydrogen and oxygen from the air in a fuel cell stack. The only by-product of this process? Pure water.
The fuel cell system powers a rear-mounted electric motor and stores energy in a lithium-ion battery, supplemented by regenerative braking. This setup ensures instantaneous torque delivery and a smooth, quiet ride—all without tailpipe pollution. Hydrogen refueling takes just minutes, offering the convenience of gasoline refueling with the clean profile of electric driving.
The Mirai’s advanced intake system also includes an electrostatic air filter to remove ultrafine particles (PM2.5) and a charcoal filter to eliminate harmful chemicals, delivering cleaner air to both the vehicle and the environment.

A Chassis Built for Comfort and Control
The 2025 Mirai is built on Toyota’s GA-L rear-wheel-drive platform, typically reserved for luxury sedans. This high-strength platform, paired with a sophisticated multilink suspension, offers confident handling and a serene ride. Construction techniques like laser screw welding and adhesive bonding enhance structural rigidity, making the Mirai feel planted yet refined.
Standard performance-enhancing features include:
- Active Cornering Assist to reduce understeer during sharp turns
- Hill Start Assist Control for smooth takeoffs on inclines
- Rear-wheel drive layout for responsive handling
Streamlined Mono-Grade Strategy with More Standard Features
For 2025, Toyota simplifies the Mirai lineup by offering a single, well-equipped XLE grade, priced at a starting MSRP of $51,795 (excluding $1,095 destination/handling fee).
