Overview

Fuel Cell vehicles have not been popular in the market. Their adoption was not mainstream, and operating them on a daily basis brings its own anxiety. However, they are not without benefits. These benefits are why cars such as the 2017 Toyota Mirai Sedan are still being sold. Operating in the midsize sedan, the Mirai competes only with the Honda Clarity Fuel Cell, With a base price of MSRP $57,500, the Mirai offers just one trim. Its hydrogen-powered electric engine produces 151 horsepower and has a torque output of 247 lb-ft from a single-speed automatic transmission sending power to the front wheels. This setup gets you an EPA rating of 67 MPGe combined and provides 312 miles of range.

Buying Advice

The Toyota Mirai is a very unique car with a unique powertrain. Limited to just one trim, it is well equipped with features such as parking sensors, keyless ignition and entry, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert,eight-way power-adjustable, heated steering wheel, a navigation system, premium audio, and heated seats.
