Latest Electric car, Mistubishi i-MiEV Features, Reviews and Specs


The latest news from the Mitsubishi Motors is that they are coming with a brand new Electric car, named as Mitsubishi i-MiEV. The i MiEV is a zero-emissions vehicle based on the gasoline-driven 660cc “i” minicar. Even when taking into account CO2 emissions at the power plants that generate the power needed for charging the car, it emits only approximately 30% of the CO2 of a gasoline minicar.

Some other notable features of this new Electric car from Mitsubishi Motors, i-MiEV are that the cost per kilometer to drive the i MiEV is one third that of a comparable gasoline vehicle. Also strong acceleration is achieved through a compact and highly efficient permanent magnet synchronous motor that generates high torque from a low speed. Because the vehicle uses an electric motor free of the vertical vibration associated with gasoline engines, it runs extremely quietly.

Using the on-board charger, the vehicle can be charged with a 100V or 200V power source in the home. In addition, if quick-chargers currently being developed by power companies are used, it will be possible to charge the vehicle in a short time.
