Toyota has just launched a new vehicle in India. But this model is special for more than one reason. For starters, it was the Indian Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari that launched the new Mirai and that it runs on Hydrogen fuel cells.

The government official has unveiled the country’s first hydrogen fuel cell powered vehicle (FCEV). Alongside the Toyota Mirai, Nitin Gadkari also announced a new research and development project that will seek to investigate and analyze the feasibility of Hydrogen fuel cell based cars in India. The Japanese Automobile giant will be working with International Center for Automotive Technology (ICAT) to conduct the pilot study program in the region that will use Indian roads and climatic conditions.

For those unaware, the Mirai is currently a global product and is even considered as one of the most advanced vehicle of its kind. Notably, this also further showcases the official’s stance on renewable energy based transportation in the Indian automobile industry. The new generation of Toyota Mirai also promises to offer up to 30 percent more range along with improved handling than its previous iteration.

As per official claims, the car can deliver up to a 600 kilometer maximum range of a single full charge and can instantly be refilled similar to a gasoline powered car. This even cuts down on the refill time issue that many electric vehicles face. At the moment, the Indian government is looking for ways to decarbonize a range of sectors, and this includes the automobile industry. So, Hydrogen fuel cell based transportation systems might play an integral role in the low carbon energy plans of the nation.
