According to the Alternative Fuels Data Centre there are 12,131 electric charging stations for EVs in the US, but if Toyota is to achieve its target to sell 3,000 of its hydrogen-powered Mirai models by 2017, it will have to improve its country-wide infrastructure of hydrogen stations. Currently there are 49 hydrogen fuelling stations in California that are either open, or waiting or being built, with 12 stations about to be constructed on the East Coast, and a few stations scattered throughout the rest of the US. The company has also been working hard at improving its own infrastructure, which includes installing more than 100 new fuel cell stacks across North America over the past two years. When those breakthroughs start to happen it becomes ostensibly easier to do longer distances."

Despite the limitations with the range of hydrogen vehicles, Toyota's national advanced technology manager said "My belief is we will eventually find a new way to store hydrogen...When those breakthroughs start to happen it becomes ostensibly easier to do longer distances."
