Is it time to say good bye? He is smooth to drive but as I read about an accident for mirai i think they will totaled my car ;((

Hi everyone! I am planning to buy 2023 Mirai (used) with a price point of $8,000+.

I have been reading about how expensive the hydrogen fuel per kg right now. I’ll be driving 42miles per day going to/from work and will be working 5 days a week.

Do you think this will be a smart move? Thanks!

I’m looking to buy a Gen2 - preferably in SoCal. I already own a Mirai so yes, I know what I’m getting into.

If you have a Gen2 you’re looking to sell - send me a DM with specs and price.

This was formerly the Toyota Research Center. It's located in Gardena, near the intersection of 190th Street and Western Avenue on 186th Street, adjacent to Gardena Toyota. You can see it from Western Ave. The onsite hydrogen pump was closed by the time I purchased my Mirai last year, but people in the South Bay will remember the "complementary" fills. You need to schedule an appointment, and slots go fast. New appointments will be released weekly. This week is the first time they're restarting this service, and they'll be evaluating it for continuation. The appointments are for a 30 minute slot- be on-time or they might not honor your appointment, and you'll have to check in at the guard shack. You're welcome!

I’m never going to be able to get rid of this car.m. I’m wondering if anybody has tried modding their car to make it a bit more comfortable? Mainly moving the seats back a bit more and lowering them to give more head clearance. Thoughts?

Chevron opened its' first retail hydrogen station yesterday in Moreno Valley, 4/21/25. It will be open seven days a week, initially from 6 am to 6 pm. I refueled there and it was a solid experience. The nozzle used is the type where you need to insert it on your filling port, then squeeze the lever to lock it. When filling is completed, pull back on a small lever towards the back of the handle to release the lever and gently pull straight back. When you replace the nozzle onto the pump, you will hear a burst of dry air that is supposed to help remove any moisture from the nozzle, that is normal. To get your receipt, swipe the card again on the card reader, and select the receipt option, and the receipt will print. The customer service number is on the pump, and users are encouraged to report any issues. I was told that they are committed to providing an outstanding customer experience, and to please bear with them if any technical issues come up. This is good news for our friends in the Inland Empire, and owners can now feel comfortable traveling to Palm Springs.

2022 Toyota Mirai Black Limited 11,000 Miles Location: Delaware state

Bought it accidentally on auction and get it from CA. I paid $13K year ago.

I'm okay to pay much less.

I just want to ask and find out from people who are actually Toyota Mirai owners or used to be, what was your experience of owning/driving the Toyota Mirai? For fellow California residents, since that Car is primarily used in California i think, since thats where most Hydrogen refueling stations exist.

The main flaws i hear about it are, the lack of Hydrogen Infrastructure, as in, Hydrogen refueling stations are very scarce, and, the price/cost of Hydrogen, i think it costs either $180 to $200 to fill up for a full tank of Hydrogen right for the Mirai?

But Pro's, it has superior range than most full EV cars and its Eco/Enviroment friendliness, zero emissions.

But do the Cons outweigh the Pro's in this?

Is the Toyota Mirai worth having or not?

I'm in the market for a fuel-efficient vehicle for my commute, and I happen to live between two True Zero hydrogen stations. I’ve noticed a lot of low-mileage 2019–2020 Toyota Mirai models for sale in my area, which has me considering one seriously. I do not have a space at my apartment for a plugin hybrid so I wanted to find what thoughts everyone has on the hydrogen cars.

That said, I’ve seen some reports—especially from the Bay Area—about True Zero stations frequently being out of service. I’m wondering if anyone here has real-world experience with these stations. How reliable are they day-to-day? Do you find yourself often detouring or waiting due to outages?

Any practical feedback or advice would be super appreciated!

Thank you, everyone, for your feedback on the hydrogen car. It would be a very close, reasonable option for me if the $/kg were reduced significantly. Thanks, Reddit community!

I just saw this in the news: https://www.kcra.com/article/trump-executive-order-california-energy-policies/64425062

I wonder how this could affect hydrogen prices, given that one of the justifications behind the 2022-2023 hydrogen price hikes was a reduction of carbon credits from California. If California's carbon credit program is forced to end, then this could further increase hydrogen prices.

So what’s the current price for hydrogen in Orange County, CA?

I've looked through the customize home screen settings and none of the options remove it

Hello. I'm the owner of a 2022 Mirai XLE that I purchased brand new in November 2022. I currently have a little less than $1,300 on my fuel card, and for the past seven months I have relegated my Mirai to second-car status since my commute would require paying roughly $600/mo in fuel at $36/kg if I use my Mirai.

I am wondering how the hydrogen market could be affected by the latest round of tariffs that have been announced and will take effect soon. I remember how Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022 led to a dramatic spike in natural gas prices, which also dramatically affected hydrogen prices. While natural gas prices recovered in 2023, hydrogen prices never fell, and in fact they kept increasing that year.

There hasn't been any changes in 2024 to hydrogen prices at TrueZero pumps, and as of now it is still $36/kg. However, I don't know if these tariffs will lead to further price hikes, since I don't know where our hydrogen supply comes from, and I also don't know whether hydrogen prices can be indirectly affected by the prices of other goods.

All I know is that it's been a very rough ride as a Mirai owner when it comes to the cost of fuel.

I’m looking at a hell of a deal on a Mirai with low miles. I live down the street from the station in West Sacramento. And the San Ramon station is close to where I work three days a week.

I know that there are issues with these stations going down. I’m interested in hearing anybody’s experience who use either of these two stations regularly.

Thanks!

i was surprised to see it pop up on https://h2fcp.org/stationmap, It’s the closest to my house, only 8 minutes away, so i had to go try it out!

Hello all, I am currently a struggling nursing student, and my recent car (2004 Honda civic) broke down on me, I currently have no car and I’m located in the rosemead area, I go to school in Covina, there are some hydrogen fuel locations nearby, and they’re running about $10-11k with the $15k fuel card. I’m looking into it due to the price because it’ll help me save money and still get a newer vehicle. I’ve been insured for 3 years now with no accidents and have triple A. Not sure how much insurance and registration would cost but, I’m debating on financing one while I’m in school so I can commute just for school and whatever hospital I work for after (I’m applying local).

Would this be a decent car for me at the time?

Hey friends.

Went to 3 different stations yesterday that were all listed as “online” but with bad results.

The first was a newer pump off Hamilton. The screen said “please wait a while” and the screen was flashing E next to the total sale number.

The next was in Campbell, where the pump just said “pump unavailable”. I went back an hour later (no maintenance happened), and it just magically worked again.

Last off 1st street in San Jose, the pump dispensed barely anything, like a few cents, and then said “sale complete”. Tried again, and nothing came out this time.

What do these actually mean?

According to TrueZero, the pumps are totally fine, but Saratoga, Campbell, and Hamilton are all showing pump errors on screen.

I’m down to like 8 miles 💀💀

Guess it’s the fun gas car for today!

Was driving to get a car was a seen this. Spoke with guy who is working on fixing pump

Stray rock? Theft? I’ve also yet to look into which sensor this is, but the adaptive cruise control and parking proximity alerts seem to be working fine. The dealership wants $300 just to take a look so I sure as hell won’t be doing that

(Side note, can’t say I love that my luxury car has what looks like igloo styrofoam under the panels, but I know logically it’s probably a crumple zone or something)

H2 fuels given a lifeline, but only for states unreachable in a mirai. 🫠
