Magical Toyota Mirai emits nothing but water

What’s new? Everything, but not as much as you’d think. 

The Mirai is one of the first production hydrogen vehicles, so it’s part of a huge watershed moment, but ultimately it’s a normal car with fuel contained in tanks and an electric hybrid system that sends power to the front wheels. A lot like a Prius, only running on something a lot cleaner.

The dashboard and centre console are futuristic enough without being scary, and there are familiar touches like Toyota’s nifty little automatic gear lever sticking up near the steering wheel. You’ll find a whole range of drivetrain-related displays that can tell you what’s going on underneath you, which is cool. Again, a lot like the Prius.
