Toyota Motor Corp said on Wednesday it was recalling all of the roughly 2,800 zero-emission Mirai cars due to problems with the output voltage generated by their fuel cell system.<\/p>\n

Toyota said in Tokyo that dealers would update the fuel cell system software at no cost to the customer and the process would take about half an hour.<\/p>\n

To date, Toyota has sold about 2,840 Mirai cars in Japan, the United States and some markets in Europe, as well as the United Arab Emirates.<\/p>\n

Toyota first began selling the hydrogen-fueled Mirai in December 2014 in Japan, its home market, in a bid to lead the industry in the nascent technology.<\/p>\n

Toyota has promoted fuel cell vehicles as the most sensible next-generation option to hybrids, although a lack of hydrogen fuelling stations remains a major hurdle for mass consumption.<\/p>\n
