This week, Toyota unveiled its second generation 2021 Mirai, a premium sedan with the latest in design, technology and driving performance that uses an electric powertrain for fuel cells. It’s the car of the future – which makes sense because Mirai literally means “future”.
This weekend on Tomorrow’s World Today, field reporter Tamara Krinsky is traveling to Los Angeles to test the 2020 Mirai and learn more about Toyota’s latest addition, its development of large-scale zero-emission systems and the development of a marine fuel cell for a boat, aptly called the Energy Observer.
“This episode gives viewers a glimpse into Toyota’s unique fuel cell technology,” said Craig Scott, group leader, electrified vehicles and technology, Toyota Motor North America. “Whether it’s powering a car like the new Mirai with zero emissions or removing pollution from heavy trucks, hydrogen fuel cells can make a real difference to the environment.”
Tomorrow’s World Today will learn more about Toyota’s large zero-emission facilities, which use six hydrogen tanks and can carry up to 80,000 pounds. Krinsky then reports to the Energy Observer, a boat that uses solar energy, wind energy and the hydrogen fuel cell technology developed by Toyota for navigation in the water.
