After Toyoda looked into the camera, saying he lied habitually. He said that is how he did business.

[dollarmerchtree]

If Toyota believes in Hydrogen cars and wants to sell them, they need to have a Hydrogen refueling station at each dealership.

[tucker]

The electricity it takes to make Hydrogen would propel a BEV for more miles, so whats the point. Further, the Mirai isn't a particularly good car to begin with.

[netgnostic]

I'm sure somebody in the EV conversion world will do this: we need an EV conversion kit on the market for the Toyota Mirai. Pull out the fuel cell, the tiny battery and the hydrogen tanks. Put battery bricks where the tanks were. You already have the electric motor. If the price of the kit is low enough, converting a Mirai that you bought cheap could really be good.

[Mabeylater]

Hydrogen cars for airheads🤣
Seriously though. Not only did toyota lie to them; they lied Akio Toyoda himself SPECIFICALLY AGREED WITH ELON MUSK WHEN ELON CALLED HYDROGEN CARS “mind boggingly stupid”. The Plantiffs should find that quote and use it in court!!!!

[mtnhorse]

Toyota is sticking to their story because they know how far behind they are in EV and cannot compete. Actually that's the case for most of the Japanese manufacturers...

[alastairhatt]

I keep having this discussion with my brother who thinks hydrogen is the future….. I have a Tesla M3 RWD refresh and he thinks this is the worst idea ever. Lots of FUD with him! Given up trying to discuss as not interested. Love spending $5 a week on electric to drive my car.. 👍🇦🇺

[chrisofnottingham]

The thing is, how did they expect it to go if they don't set up a refuelling infrastructure? Tesla put huge resources into their charging network, plus people can charge EV's at home anyway.

[scottgardener]

There's more battery electric charging stations in my garage than there are hydrogen fuel cell charging stations in my state. I can't even call fuel cells the Betamax of EVs, because Betamax at least was objectively technologically better than VHS.

[JensPilemandOttesen]

In a Bjørn Nyland episode 6 mth back. He pointed out an abandoned Mirai... Owner just left it at the H2 Station.

[scotduckrow]

Toyota just unveiled a hydrogen station in Long Beach, CA. If I lived there and got free hydrogen for 5 years, I'd gladly pay 10K for all the local travel, knowing that any long roadtrips would be impossible. Toyota should take back all Murais and rent them out in Long Beach, recouping some of their loss.

[barrymayson]

I always thought hydrogen was a bad idea knowing how difficult it is to keep hydrogen in a tank . It's a real slippery customer. Keep hydrogen for rockets.

[abimaelcaraballo]

GM was experimenting with hydrogen technology back in 2008. They actually had a Chevy Equinox to showcase their tech. They stopped experimenting for a reason.

[johns]

One of the biggest benefits of EV is that you can plug-in at home before you go to bed, literally takes 6 seconds to plug in.
Something impossible to do at home with hydrogen. What a stupid idea.

[coffeeisgood]

This is a real shame. When Toyota first introduced itself to North America 60 years ago their quality was far better than the big 3 which had grown stagnant and boring. Toyota made a splash with new efficient designs which contributed to a superior driving experience. And their cars were reliable. Americans took notice and gobbled these up as fast as they could be produced. Today Toyota has become stagnant just like GM, Ford & Chrysler were back in the late 1960’s.

[demdox]

The infrastructure isn’t ready yet doesn’t mean the technology is bad. Hydrogen in theory makes much more sense than battery powered electric cars.

[pendo]

Here's a hydrogen fact - used the NSW Government app (Australia) 'Fuel watch' to see where the hydrogen refill stations are. Nearest one to my house was in Victoria. Doh! I've always been a Toyota fan (my 2005 Toyota is still going strong) but I'm quite disappointed about Toyota having their head in the sand with EV's. Looks like my next car will be Chinese.

[victorblakey]

Toyota’s decision to stick with internal combustion, whether petroleum, lpg or hydrogen, is sending them on a path to their very own ‘Kodak Moment’

[massimovergerio]

sorry for them?... come on.. first mistake was they bought a Toyota, and the second mistake was they bought a Hydrogen Toyota... nah.. not sorry, shocked, but not sorry.

[slartybartfarst]

I generate my own fuel for my 2014 Tesla, but then again one of the reasons I bought a Tesla is they were putting in free fuelling infrastructure, no brainer. Toyota Hydrogen car buyers you did it too yourselves....muppets. "I believe, I have faith, tell me I wont think".
