Mitsubishi have started deliving the production versions of their new electric car.
The rest of the customers will get their hands on the car sometimes in April 2010. The car manufacturer is selling the car for 34,000 euros and are beginning to take orders next month.
The car is fitted with a 64hp electric engine. The engine is powered by a lithium ion battery that gives you 160 kilometres of driving time before being drained. As for the speed side of things, you should be able to get to 80 mph with the lithium battery.
After you have drained all of your 130 kilometres, you will have to wait another 7 hours for the battery to be fully charged again. However, you can quick charge the battery which is meant to give 80% power in just 30 minutes.
Although the car is pretty small at only 3.4 metres in total length and 2.5 metres in total width, it will still be able to carry 4 people. It also comes with a range of features including air conditioning, an entertainment system, plus sat nav.
At 47,000 dollars (29,000 pounds) the new i-MiEv electric car is definately not the cheapest on the market. However, I suppose if you really do care alot about the environment, then you won’t worry too much about the cost.
No doubt there will be a cheaper method to get this car. 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. However, although you pay a higher price for it initially, you don’t have to pay for petrol, being electric powered.
