The RWD layout also allowed for increased hydrogen storage to boost EPA-estimated range to 402 miles (Mirai XLE grade), a 30% increase over the first-generation Mirai. The three tanks together hold about 11 pounds (5 kg) of hydrogen. A water-cooled oil cooler integrated with the air compressor helps to provide reliability.
