Mitsubishi and Peugeot to Co-Develop Electric Vehicle : CarFront News: "We guess this is really the twilight of beastly cars. Every automaker’s just interested in developing green cars. And the whole mentality is even prompting them to team up. Japanese automaker Mitsubishi and French group Peugeot Citroen just struck a deal to partner up to develop electric vehicles.
The deal includes a development of an i-MiEV based vehicle for the European market which will be marketed under both Peugeot and Citroen marquees. Production is slated to commence by October 2010 and the cars will hit the market soon after.
The production version of the i-MiEV has been showcased earlier this year. The electric motor dishes out an equivalent of 67 hp with a max torque of 133 lb-ft. The car supposedly has a range of 100 miles and a top speed of 80 mph."
