Overview

Belonging to the midsize sedan segment, the 2016 Toyota Mirai Electric Sedan carries all the qualities of a true electric vehicle. With standalone trim, the Toyota Mirai Electric carries a base MSRP of $57,500. This puts it in indirect competition with cars like the Tesla Model S sedan. There aren#39;t any powertrain options to explore here. The Mirai Electric is equipped with a single motor setup, 2 hydrogen fuel tanks, and a 1.6-kWh hybrid battery with a rated power output of 151 horsepower. Through this setup, the Mirai Electric gets a range of 312 miles. In a straight line, the Mirai Electric clocks a 0-60 of 9.0 seconds. While the powertrain leaves you devoid of choices, the choice is instead offered through the 4 beautiful colors available for the car.
