High-pressure hydrogen tanks
The Mirai is equipped with in-house developed 70 MPa high-pressure hydrogen tanks. The new 70 MPa tanks have three layers; a plastic liner a plastic liner to retain pressurized hydrogen (the innermost layer of the tank), a carbon fiber reinforced plastic layer, and a glass fiber reinforced plastic layer to protect the surface. The structure of the carbon fiber reinforced plastic layer has been innovatively lightened, giving it world-leading* tank storage performance.
