Model Preview
The Toyota Mirai is expected to be a carryover for the 2019 model year.
Unfortunately, full specs have not yet been announced as of this writing, but we expect its availability to remain restricted to a handful of California dealers.
The current car is the brand’s only hydrogen-electric vehicle, offering the benefit of zero CO2 emissions and a speedier refueling time than standard electric vehicles. One important downside has been the limited availability of refueling stations.
In terms of range, the 2018 Mirai offers up to 312 miles of driving, considerably more than most traditional electrics. At the moment, there are no indications this will change for 2019.
Generous incentives have made the vehicle more attractive to lease. California also offers a Clean Vehicle Rebate worth $5,000 for most applicants. Separately, Toyota also offers 3-years of free maintenance, a special 100,000 mile warranty and 3 years of free fuel.
Official pricing is expected to be released in October 2018 based on initial ordering guides. As a result, we estimate seeing an on-sale date falling sometime in November.
This page will be updated as new information becomes available.
The vehicle’s only direct competitor is the Honda Clarity Fuel Cell. However, it also competes with a range of battery-electrics and plug-in hybrids like the Chevy Bolt EV and Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid.
