Toyota Mirai will offer a Mono-grade Strategy for MY2025

The Toyota Mirai enters the 2025 model year with the same great cutting-edge efficiency and innovation that uses hydrogen from onboard tanks and oxygen from the outside air to generate power for the vehicle.

For 2025, the Toyota Mirai will solely be offered in the XLE grade which will include an enhanced list of standard features like a Panoramic View Monitor, Front and Rear Parking Assist with Automatic Braking, front-seat foot illumination, Digital Key capability and dual-tone heated outside mirrors.

Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 will continue to come standard on the 2025 Toyota Mirai. Designed to assist drivers, the suite of technology includes features to help drivers stay vigilant on the road ahead.

The 2025 Toyota Mirai is expected to arrive at Toyota dealerships this Spring with a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $51,795. It will offer an EPA estimated driving range rating of 402 miles.

Innovating Through Hydrogen

In essence, the Mirai is a “plug-less” electric vehicle. A Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV) generates its own electricity onboard from hydrogen, with water as the only tailpipe emission. The fuel cell system combines stored hydrogen, along with oxygen from the air, and then a chemical reaction produces electric current and water, which drops out of a vent pipe beneath the car.

Instead of having to charge a large battery pack like in a battery–electric vehicle, which can take several hours, the Mirai’s driver fills the vehicle’s tanks with hydrogen. With an FCEV, the fuel is non-toxic, compressed hydrogen gas rather than liquid gasoline.

Electricity generated by the Mirai’s fuel cell and the regenerative braking system is stored in a lithium-ion battery. Pressing the accelerator pedal yields immediate flow of electric power from the fuel cell battery to the rear-mounted AC synchronous electric motor, which drives the rear wheels. An electric air compressor pressurizes the intake air, and a water-cooled intercooler reduces the temperature of the compressed air before it enters the fuel cell stack. A water-cooled oil cooler integrated with the air compressor helps maximize efficiency.

The intake system is designed to help mitigate noise, which is virtually unnoticeable to occupants. By necessity, the intake air for the fuel cell must be purified. And so, an electrostatic air cleaner element captures ultra-fine particles (Particulate Matter 2.5), and a charcoal filter removes chemical substances.

A Driver’s Dream Chassis

The Mirai is built on the premium Rear-Wheel Drive (RWD) GA-L platform, creating a mid-size luxury-sport sedan. The RWD configuration helps support an engaging driving experience that also allows for the two hydrogen fuel tanks located under the rear seats.

The high-strength GA-L platform with sophisticated multilink suspension provides the foundation for superb handling agility and an exceptionally smooth, quiet ride. Laser screw welding and adhesive structure bonding, proven on many other Toyota and Lexus models, are among the construction techniques used to give the Mirai a truly premium feel on the road.

Active Cornering Assist engages the stability control to reduce understeer in certain cornering situations. Standard Hill Start Assist Control allows for smooth takeoffs from stops on hills.

Bold Sophisticated Design

Mirai’s low, wide and long stance gives this hydrogen fuel cell vehicle a look that’s cutting-edge and sophisticated. The bold design portrays a sense of motion with the long hood, sweeping roofline, and short rear deck. It sits on 19-inch aluminum wheels and 235/55R19 all-season tires – accentuating its modern look.

The Mirai is equipped with auto-leveling bi-beam LED headlights, multi-LED front and rear turn signal indicators, Daytime Running Lights and clearance lights. The LED side marker lamps are etched with the Mirai logo.

A thin LED taillight panel spans the car’s width, tapered in the center, and creates a unique nighttime signature with three distinct gradation lines. Color-keyed heated power-folding outside mirrors feature turn signal indicators, defrosters, blind spot warning and puddle lights.

Inside the cabin, the Mirai features SofTex- trimmed heated, power-adjustable front seats (8-way for driver, 4-way for passenger). It has dual-zone automatic climate control that allows the driver and front passenger to set their own temperatures so they can be comfortable on the road ahead.

The 2025 Mirai is available in six exterior colors: Black, Oxygen White, Supersonic Red, Heavy Metal, Hydro Blue and Elemental Silver Metallic.

State-of-the-Art Technology

The Mirai comes equipped with a 12.3-inch multimedia touchscreen display that puts tech front and center for drivers and passengers alike.

The 12.3-inch display provides easy access for the driver or front passenger, and the multimedia, climate control and navigation content can be toggled from left and right. This display also relays imagery from the Panoramic View Monitor, which provides an overhead 360-degree view in drive and reverse.

Behind the steering wheel is a 12.3-inch gauge cluster, which includes an ECO drive indicator to help the driver maximize fuel efficiency by providing acceleration guidance and assigning a score on economical driving. Hydrogen fuel level and remaining estimated range are always shown.

Powering devices also comes easy with a Qi-compatible wireless charging tray, one USB Media port, 3 USB Type C Charging ports, and a 12V DC Socket in the center console.

The Toyota Audio Multimedia system offers a wide range of connectivity and convenience features, including Over-the-Air (OTA) updates. Users can interact with the system through touch and voice activation. With Intelligent Assistant available through an active Drive Connect trial or subscription, simple phrases like “Hey Toyota” awakens the system for voice-activated commands to search for directions, find Points of Interest (POI), adjust audio controls, change the cabin temperatures and more. One-year trial Drive Connect included.

Toyota Audio Multimedia allows for simultaneous dual Bluetooth phone connectivity with support for wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability. An active Wi-Fi Connect trial or subscription offers 4G connectivity for up to five devices. Adding to the already robust offering of audio playback ability with HD Radio, USB data and a SiriusXM 3-month trial subscription, Wi-Fi Connect also enables the Integrated Streaming feature, providing the ability to link your separate Apple Music and Amazon Music subscriptions to the vehicle for onboard control. 30 day/3 GB Wi-Fi Connect trial included.

In addition to standard Toyota warranties benefits, all 2025 Mirai owners/lessees will receive the following:

  • Extended ToyotaCare for three years or 35,000 miles (whichever comes first)
  • Safety Connect Enhanced Roadside Assistance for up to 10 years, including expedited towing service and trip interruption reimbursement
  • Dedicated Mirai 24/7 phone support for three years
  • Complimentary hydrogen fuel of $15,000, or six years for new Mirai purchases, or three years for new Mirai leases (whichever comes first)
  • Eight-year/100,000-mile FCEV warranty on key fuel cell electric vehicle components
  • Ten-year/150,000-mile hybrid battery warranty on key hybrid components
