Mitsubishi have begun delivery production versions of their i-MiEv electric car to select customers.
The rest of the world will see the release of the car sometime next April. The car manufacturer is starting to take orders next month at a cost of 34,000 euros.
The car is fitted out with a 64 hp engine that is fitted in the rear of the car. Using the lithium ion battery that powers the engine, you should be able to drive around 160 kilometres before running out of juice. As for the speed, you should be able to reach 130 kmph using the lithium battery.
After you have drained all of your battery power, you will have to wait another 7 hours before heading off again. However, there is an alternate quick charge method which supposedly charges the battery to 80% in just 30 minutes, not sure why the full charge takes 7 hours then.
Although the car is quite compact coming in at only 3.4 metres in total length and 2.5 metres wide, it can hold 4 people. It includes a series of features including a navigation and entertainment system, plus air conditioning.
At 34,000 euros (29,000 pounds) this is now cheap car to buy. I suppose, if you want to help save the environment, you won’t be too concerned about the cost for a greener car.
No doubt you will be able to get this car by usign a alternative method. By getting a Mitsubishi lease out for this car you often pay less because you don’t buy the entire car. This is the same with any other car maker I must add, whether you want a Chrysler lease or a eco friendly Mitsubishi. Although, when you consider that you don’t have fuel charges on the i-MiEv, by leasing it you could save alot of money.
