Theres a word that the new Mirai was a reworked cancelled next gen Lexus GS project. Dunno how true that is but it does have some merit based on what the new car has:
Mirai is all of a sudden RWD and looks substantially better than the wierd prius-like design of the older car, the interior has some aspects of the Lexus design language in it (the entire gauge cluster binnacle looks like its lifted from the current generation of Lexus interiors), and its far more upscale and normal looking compared to the outgoing Mirai, and i think its on the TNGA RWD platform (Not sure which one...maybe the same one used on the Toyota Crown)
