Only fuel cells cars do, Toyota says so.

Dammit Toyota, why are you so bad at social media?!

"Innovative design delivers air to the fuel cell stack, where it reacts with hydrogen to power the Mirai."

Quick update for the ad agency in charge of their social sites: ALL CARS BREATH IN AIR! Even electric cars use air for their heat exchangers. Please learn how cars work.

Now if you wanted to say something like "a breath of fresh air" or breathes in air, exhales only water" then okay, but this isn't just misinformed, it makes you look stupid.

This whole front end makes the car look terrible.

It's like the old troubleshooting guide says. Your car needs three things to run: gas, electricity, and the blessing of Thor.

White isn't a good color on this car. Might be better in blue.

haha...I mean...it's true. Seems like a strange thing to advertise, but it's not like it's false or anything. They didn't say 'the first car to ever breathe air' or somthing.

great now the electrics are going to use up all of our air! Wind turbines are going to use up all of the wind and solar cells will suck the sun dry! Open your eyes people!

Innovative design delivers air to the book lung and spiracles, where it fuels the cell energy process in thousands upon thousands of muscle fibers. We were fools to create a giant spider that looked like a Toyota - FOOLS!

It's like their "its a car" campaign, except they are serious.

So you're saying we've been dragging around twice as many valves as we need in our old hat ICE cars? Damn, and here I was thinking my turbos were functional...

Apparently, that beat out their other top 3 finishers "A Car That has Rubber Tires" and "A Car That's Covered in Paint".
