Toyota верит в будущее, где автомобили оснащены водородными топливными элементами

The leadership of the Japanese company stubbornly believes that the automotive industry of the future will use hydrogen fuel cells. Meanwhile, as more and more global auto giants are rebuilding on a completely different path of development - the release of electric cars in a wide variety of modifications. Toyota does not share universal enthusiasm about this and does not rely solely on electric cars. The company cites a number of arguments in favor of its technologies and hydrogen elements, one of which says that the refueling time of such a machine is equivalent to the refueling time of an ordinary car, which means that it is much faster than charging an electric car battery.
As an example, a Japanese company cites its development - a hydrogen hybrid fuel cell car Toyota Mirai. This model is in mass production and is not fueled by traditional fuel (gasoline), but by hydrogen. This car has successfully established itself on the roads of Japan and other countries. One full refueling of the Toyota Mirai fuel tank with a volume of 4.5 kg is enough to cover a distance of approximately 500 km.
Such a development, like Mirai, makes sense in the public transport sector, because it does not need a long battery charge and will allow you to earn non-stop. In defense of hydrogen technology, the company cites another main argument - the high cost of batteries with an average life of about ten years.
