I think it looks amazing. Finally something that can (hopefully) match the Japan-only Crown.
I’m a little surprised they’re still using the Toyota brand to sell it though. Looks a lot more like a Lexus IMO.

Very clean and cohesive cab-rearward look (no "floating roof", tearducts or fake vents, thank you!) I hope this design language goes into all future Toyotas!

Looks like this platform could easily take an inline 6.

I like it
Looks more like a Lexus than a Toyota though. I can smell the quasi-Masonic handshake

This is so much better looking than the first generation that I legit thought it was just a concept car at first.

That is more like it Toyota. The current Mirai is not the easiest on the eye but I have always liked it. This new Mirai Concept is just a great looking car.

Seems a bit odd to keep using the Mirai name on such a vastly different vehicle aimed at a completely different audience. It’s a bit like if they called every hybrid (whether a car or crossover) a Prius (and yes I know about the Prius C and V, but they still looked like/had some relation to the original, and in Japan they had their own names). But I guess it is still just a concept.
One of Toyota’s best designs in a while though

That looks pretty amazing, such a massive improvement over the first generation.
Since the Mirai has exchanged a wedge-shaped vehicle for a sleek saloon (and to some extent, Honda did the same with the Insight), what are the chances of Toyota doing the same with the Prius? 💡

Apart from the gaping front, it's a hell of an improvement over the old car. Sadly without a viable infrastructure, hydrogen cars will always remain as a pricey niche

Lexus inspired front headlights.
Supra inspired rear.
Lexus inspired interior, even more beautiful.
45º rear side is nice.
45º front side I can't like the nose type 86 and grille only in front view.
90º side more looks like a 4-door Supra LS.
Aero rims TOP.
And I miss the LF-A, it is what it is!.

I like the interior shot where the mirrors look humongous.
