Toyota Mirai

The Toyota Mirai arrives as a bold, futuristic saloon that turns heads with sleek, almost sci‑fi styling and a cabin that feels more lounge than cockpit.

Great car, I switched from a Lexus NX300h F-Sport, and in terms of comfort the Mirai wins.

It really is the Swiss Army knife. Six people on holiday at a summer cottage including all their luggage. Or how about four people in the car plus a dishwasher standing in as baggage. Or five people, two of them in child seats plus two strollers in the back. And it's also super comfortable on long trips. You sit well and it has a nice interior. Today there's nothing comparable that can replace it. Oh, and it actually does the 16–17 km/l it's rated for.
