Toyota Mirai Hydrogen Fuel Cell Car
Battery cars seem to have the upper hand and companies like Tesla, Volkswagen en Renault are betting on that principle. But there are still a few companies that are not convinced and keep pushing the hydrogen fuel cell. And they do have a few points. Do we really want countries littered with tens of millions of charging poles? Do we really want to upgrade the grid for automotive? Charging a car battery takes hours, filling a hydrogen tank merely minutes. And then there is the range issue. 400 kg battery to enable 400-500 kilometers. With hydrogen, stored in 60 kg sodium-borohydride brings your 1000 kilometer.
We bet that the hydrogen fuel cell will prevail.
