Repairable, Salvage and Damaged Toyota Mirai for Sale
Showing results 1 - 21 of 21
21 Toyota Mirai sedans for sale across 12+ Copart locations – model years 2016–2026, avg. mileage 45,000 mi. 29% clean title, 67% salvage; Front End is the top damage (43%). Bids start at $425, and value here depends heavily on where you can actually fuel and drive one.
The Mirai runs on hydrogen, not gasoline or a plug, which makes it one of the narrowest niches in Toyota's auction pool. Toyota sold and leased it almost exclusively in California, because that's essentially the only place with a working network of hydrogen fueling stations, so a Mirai bought anywhere else is a car with nowhere to fill up. That single fact sets the price here more than the damage report does. Buyers tend to be California residents, fuel-cell specialists, or people planning to part the car out rather than drive it. Whatever the plan, expect the deal to hinge on refueling access before it hinges on cosmetics.
Two generations exist: the original 2015–2020 Mirai and the second-generation car that Toyota redesigned for 2021, switching to rear-wheel drive and stretching range past 400 miles. Both store hydrogen in high-pressure, carbon-fiber-wrapped tanks that carry their own safety systems, including valves that vent gas safely rather than let a tank rupture in a fire. That engineering is also why you shouldn't treat tank damage like a dented gas tank – any lot with damage near the tanks or the fuel-cell stack needs inspection from someone trained on the system, not a general body shop. The fuel-cell stack itself costs a lot to service and few shops outside California handle it, so factor a longer repair timeline into any bid. A car with a clean tank system and cosmetic damage only is a very different buy than one with damage anywhere near the hydrogen hardware.
Buying is quick: register free – no dealer license – set a maximum bid and the system bids up to that cap, or take a lot at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then pick up, ship or export.
Note: ACV and damage data come from the original auction listing. Always check the condition and title yourself before you bid.
FAQ
What condition are these Mirais in?
About 21 lots, 67% on a salvage title and the rest clean or rebuilt. Front End leads at 43%, and every lot is the same sedan body.
Is a salvage Mirai worth buying?
Only if you can actually fuel it – hydrogen stations concentrate in California, so buyers outside that market are usually after parts, not a driver. There isn't enough sales volume here to quote a median; price it against where you'll register and fuel the car, not against a typical used-car chart. A tank or fuel-cell stack that took damage is the one thing that can turn a cheap-looking lot into a bad buy.
What should I check before bidding?
Ask directly whether the hydrogen tanks or fuel-cell stack show any damage, and don't rely on exterior photos alone to judge that. Check the generation – 2015–2020 or 2021-plus – since range and drivetrain layout differ. Confirm you have realistic access to a hydrogen station before you bid at all.
Can I insure and register a salvage Mirai?
Only after it's rebuilt and passes a state inspection – then most insurers will write it, just not the company that totaled it. While it's salvage-titled it can't be road-registered. Check with your insurer before you bid.
How does the auction work?
Register free, no dealer license. Set a maximum bid and the system bids for you up to that cap, or take a lot at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then pick up, ship or export.
How do I check a Mirai's history?
Every lot shows the VIN, damage type and title brand. Run the VIN through a vehicle-history report, and ask the seller directly about the condition of the hydrogen tanks and fuel-cell stack.
What are good alternatives to the Mirai?
The Hyundai Nexo is the only other hydrogen fuel-cell car sold in the US, and it shares the same California-only fueling limitation. For a plug-in alternative without the hydrogen question, look at the Honda Clarity.
