The Toyota Mirai has just won the world distance record for a vehicle running on hydrogen. The Japanese sedan traveled 1,003 km on a full tank.
New record for the Toyota Mirai! The Japanese sedan just beat the distance world record for a hydrogen vehicle.
Taken by a team of 4 drivers, dont Victorien Erussard, at the origin of the first zero-emission hydrogen ship sailing around the world, the Mirai, in its series version, walked very exactly 1,003 km with a single charge of hydrogen. Not bad when you know that the average autonomy of the car in normal driving is 650 kilometers (average combined cycle WLTP).
Equipped with three tanks capable of holding 5.6 kg of hydrogen, the Mirai displayed during its world record an average hydrogen consumption of 0.55 g / km.
“The hydrogen used for this record was entirely green, zero emissions from production to use,” says Toyota.
Departing last Wednesday May 26 from the HysetCo hydrogen station in Orly, in Val-de-Marne (94), the Mirai achieved its record on a mainly road route, from the south of Paris to the Indre-et- Loire via the Loir-et-Cher.
