Mitsubishi i-MiEV Ahead Of Schedule

Mitsubishi i-MiEV Ahead Of Schedule: "Despite its diminutive “slightly-smaller-than-a-VW -Rabbit” size, the i MiEV is not bargain-priced. Even with Japanese Government subsidies the price tag is estimated to be roughly $28,000. However, judging by the lavish praise of those that have driven the car, the price does not appear to be prohibitive to the car’s success. Capable of a top speed of 81 mph, the I MiEV’s lithium-ion battery pack was jointly developed by Mitusubishi and the GS Yuasa Corporation to facilitate up to a 100 mile driving range depending on which batter version is selected. The lower model can travel a still respectable range of just over 80 miles."
