The Auto Expo is not the first time that the Mirai hydrogen fuel cell vehicle has been brought to India, however. Back in March 2022, the automaker began a pilot project with the hydrogen car to evaluate it for the Indian market.
Ever since, the Toyota Mirai has been part of a study to analyze the business case for fuel cell electric vehicles in India. This study began after the Japanese automaker signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the International Centre for Automotive Technology (iCAT).
