丰田近日发布了量产版Mirai（日语意为“未来”）燃料电池车,该车将于明年4月在日本上市，在日本起价700万日元（约合人民币36.89万元），随后将于夏季在美欧上市。这款车基本上就是去年东京车展亮相的FCV燃料电池概念车的演进版本。Mirai采用四门轿车造型，外观设计很普通。重要的是，该车续航里程达到483公里，氢燃料耗尽后完全加注满仅需不到5分钟。就在Mirai即将上市之时，恰好美国也准备在纽约、马萨诸塞、新泽西、罗德岛和康涅狄格五个州建立氢燃料加注站。

 

Toyota Mirai fuel cell vehicle officially revealed with 300-mile range

Toyota has taken the wraps off the production-ready Mirai fuel cell vehicle which is set to go on sale next year.

 

There were some rumors about Toyota using the "Mirai" ("future" in Japanese) nameplate for its fuel cell vehicle and now it's official and the model is programmed reach dealerships in Japan in April 2015 while Europe and United States will get the car later in the summer.

 

Essentially an evolution of the FCV concept from last year's Tokyo Motor Show, the Toyota Mirai takes the shape of a four door sedan with a rather controversial design. More importantly, Toyota says their "groundbreaking vehicle" will be able to travel for up to 300 miles (483 km) before running out of hydrogen while a full refill will take less than five minutes.

 

With the Mirai, Toyota mentions "the future has arrived" and the car's launch will coincide with a plan to develop a hydrogen refueling infrastructure in five northeastern U.S. states. In association with Air Liquide, twelve stations will be opened in New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Rhode Island and Connecticut.

 

Final pricing details have not been disclosed but in Japan the Toyota Mirai will cost around 7M yen (about $60,300 / €48,200).
