How about Toyota Mirai hydrogen car ??

Does anyone drive a Toyota Mirai hydrogen car ?
Just recently, a $20,000 discount, plus $8,000 and a $4.5,000 credit. In addition, I was forced to purchase it because of the $15,000 hydrogen fuel cost assistance, etc.The list price could have been over $60,000 including tax, but with discounts, it was actually under $400,000.
I think it would be less than $15,000 if you take into account further credits, etc.
If you are interested, please email me. It looks like we can both get $400 if we refer people.
I would be happy to share with you the good and the bad of driving a hydrogen car.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

It's a good car for sure. I seriously considered buying one for a while, but eventually decided against it because the resale value sucks so bad. If you can afford it and live near a hydrogen station, I might recommend it.

Yes, the drawback is, after all, the hydrogen stations. The reason why they are not sold in Japan is that they cost a lot of money to build. You can't even build a building on top of it due to the risk of explosion, and the size of the site, etc.
It might be possible in the U.S., but so far it has not been popularized outside of LA and CA, so it is inconvenient. What about the future development? You Tube, I think you are getting advertising fee from TOYOTA ?
Once, Mirai, will you be with me at the dealer ?
I want to buy one, don't you? My car is old.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

> $500 monthly payment and full coverage insurance, total would be over $700
full coverage insurance is $ 200 ? ?
No, no, no, it's impossible. Monthly insurance alone $ 700+
Well, when you sell a new car for less, you should assume there is something behind it
If Tota left here, it means they abandoned CA state
Then CA state will not back up Tota. CA state will not back up Totah. That means
no more hydrogen stations, or no more hydrogen supply, or always sold out
if you want quietness, electric cars are the bestThis text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Right? Used prices that low are either accidents or Mirai opaque. But TOYOTA is still making them. Other electric cars are safer. I can go to other states. A Camry hybrid looks better. Or a luxury car like a Lexus for less money and drive it around the neighborhood for a few years. Don't think about resale value; you might be out of business in 6 years. Or even before that.
There's also a flip side to the large Discount.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

There are several reasons for the low used prices.
1 . First generation Mirai design is tacky
2 . First generation Mirai is a panda from the back
3 . Maintenance costs are unknown and likely to be high for medium to long term ownership
4 . Hydrogen gas Not cheap if you pay for it yourself ( about $80 per fill up, 300 miles of driving )
5 . inconvenient to refill with hydrogen ( few current stations etc )
6 . first generation Mirai design is weird
I don't recommend buying a new car for cosmetic reasons, the safest choice would be Camry, Prius or Accord.
If you want to save the most money, it will be cheaper to drive a 10 year old Japanese car with minimum repairs.
If you want to save the ultimate money, drive a car without power windows or air conditioning, so there are fewer parts to break.
I may have thought a little differently before Corona than I do now. But I realized. You never know when you will die in life. Will I work hard and be thrifty for the rest of my life?
It is not a bad idea to reward yourself once in a while ?
America is a car society. If you drive almost every day, why not drive a car that is good enough?
The new Mirai is environmentally friendly, equipped with the latest safety features, comfortable to drive, and quiet.
The design is also cool. The 0% interest rate is not ridiculous.
I predict that there are several reasons for the large discount.
1 . Manufacturers are obligated to sell environmentally-promoting vehicles and are penalized if they do not sell a certain number. I heard that Tesla is profitable because it sells those credits to other companies. So Toyota may be selling at a reduced price to secure the credit even if it is not profitable.
2 . For the time being, they are hoping for a publicity effect by offering a large discount ( In fact, thanks to the large discount, more than half of the cars are now sold before they are distributed to dealers on the way to import from Japan )
3 . They are hoping for publicity by running more cars in the city
4 . Still few hydrogen stations
5 . Toyota seriously planning to promote hydrogen cars
The big discount sale makes me think back to the Prius Prime in 2018. It debuted in '17, but awareness was low and dealers were still piling up inventory in April '18. So to clear out inventory, a $5,000 discount was initiated. Being a plug-in, there was a government incentive (4.5k + 1.5k) similar to Mirai, so a $30,000+ car could actually be bought for $20,000 including tax. After that, they became popular because they could afford to get over 50 miles to the gallon, and you can see many of them around town these days. At the same time, the big discount is gone. If I sold it now, I could sell it for about $20,000, which means I could drive the car for free for two and a half years.
Riding a Mirai may be like having a cute girlfriend, a handsome boyfriend, a brand new bag, or a rare pet. Because it is better than normal, it also requires a certain amount of extra care. Whether that is a good thing or not is left to individual judgment. Even those who drive Teslas may have their own concerns that they can't talk to others about ?
In case you are wondering, the Mirai is a kind of electric car. There is a small hydrogen power plant inside the car, which produces electric energy to power the motor. So it is very quiet.It doesn't have the power of a Tesla, but acceleration is not bad. It seems to have more than a normal 3 liter car.
You can also see the future expansion plans for hydrogen stations on the internet, and it looks like there are quite a few planned.
So I predict that they will not be reduced in the future. I think the cost of hydrogen will go down more than up as it becomes more prevalent. I don't think Toyota will do anything to eliminate stations until the end of the car's ( life ? ) about 10 years, as a matter of social responsibility.
Normally, any new car you buy will lose about $3,000 in value in the first year. 5 ~ $6,000 in 3 years, I think.
I think the value after 2 years is not a problem, but after 3 years I expect it to be around $10,000 at worst. Still, I think it's not bad since the real purchase price is about $12,000. Worst case scenario, if the resale value gets worse, you might want to trade it in to Toyota.
Car, please email me and we can meet at the OC dealership later this evening or weekend.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

The used price and leasable value of an electric car is quite low.
After about 3 years, after all, the most expensive lithium battery, which is the main part of an electric car, will suffer a loss of power. After 5 years, an electric car is worth a bundle if you don't replace the battery. This text has been translated by auto-translation.

Numerous car critics have decided to buy this new Mirai on the spot after test driving it.
The chassis and ride quality seem to be quite good.
I've driven a few Korean cars in rental cars, and they all have good specs and equipment, but they all ride poorly.

I was driving a Honda hydrogen car. I decided that I would never drive a Honda again because Honda's service was so different from Toyota's. I was considering switching to the new Mirai, but gave up when I saw the price of the lease. The price of the car was about the same as the BMV 5 series, so I gave up because I thought the tax and insurance were very expensive and not suitable for my size.
Hydrogen cars are almost never a problem in the Torrance area, as there are many stations nearby. I would recommend joining the owners club on Facebook, as the employees at each station post about any urgent maintenance or residuals, so be sure to join the group.
Please make sure to check the app to make sure you have enough left and are online before you head out to put in your hydrogen. Also, if you fill more than 3 cars in a row, the hydrogen pressure will drop and you will need to wait about 10 ~ 15 minutes for the pressure to increase. Please chat with other owners and wait patiently.
I am a renter and cannot afford an electric car, so the hydrogen car was very convenient. However, the hydrogen cost I spent after 3 years of driving it was less than $1000, so I think I will go back to a gasoline car next time, since a gasoline car is usually more cost-effective, even considering the various benefits. However, the feeling of an EV is so comfortable that you can't forget it once you drive it.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

The U.S. and Japanese governments are greatly increasing their fiscal spending in an effort to increase the use of hydrogen.
Many large companies are also beginning to focus on the widespread use of hydrogen.As the hydrogen infrastructure is rapidly established, the price of hydrogen gas will become much cheaper.

It looks like this special has been extended until about June 2.
Since the markup on the dealer has been eliminated, it looks like the monthly payment will be about $520 ( 72 months ).
Calculating again,
52,594 - 20,000 (Toyota discount) + 4,500 (tax) + 800 (DMV overhead) = 37,894 (price paid in store)
37,894 - 8,000 - 4,500 - 15,000 - 400 = $ 9,994.
You have to wait for delivery, but you can effectively buy a Mirai for less than $10,000.
However, there is no inventory, so you have to order the color of the car and the model you want and wait.
The tank may need to be inspected every 4 years, but I don't think it needs to be replaced. It looks like it has a cylinder like thing in it, but it only weighs 5 ~ 6 kilos more hydrogen gas when filled up. I think hydrogen gas is lightweight, as it weighs about 57 kg when filled with 20 gallons of regular gasoline.
My personal impression after riding the car is that Japanese video sites give it too much praise. I feel that many of the American specifications are simplified. Other Japanese cars are pretty much the same.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation.

Hydrogen gas would be about $50 to $80 per refill. Mileage would be 200 ~ 300 miles.
In Japan, it is about 1100 yen per kilometer, and in California it is about 1 kg $ 16 ~ 20. The U.S. may be a little cheaper in the future with more stands.
Hydrogen cars are environmentally conscious cars, and Mirai is equipped with a certain amount of equipment, so for those who are most concerned about cost performance, a Prius Prime or similar may be a better choice since it can get 50 miles to the gallon or so. It is suitable for those who value safety, comfort, and green when driving, regardless of the daily mileage.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

It sounds like a hydrogen tank inspection is required, but replacement may not be necessary unless it is done by accident. The actual replacement cost of the battery would probably be more expensive.

Every pressurized tank has an expiration date. It is against the law to refill gas beyond the expiration date.
For example, welding tanks are disposed of after 3 years. Is it about 5 years for a fire extinguisher
Mirai needs to be replaced after 15 years. It's about time for the battery to go bad too
If you buy a first generation Mirai, you will soon need to replace the tank and battery.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)
