Mitsubishi electric i MiEV

Price starting from: £15,000 (est)

On Sale: Winter

Why so Great ? Zero exhaust emissions

Mitsubishi UK is pushing hard to get its hands on 200 of the first all-electric i MiEV cars this year.

The i MiEV will initially go on sale in Japan, but since the UK is also a right-hand-drive market, we could steal a march on the rest of Europe, which wont get the car untill 2010.

The plan is for the UK to get 10% of the initial 2000-strong production run late in the year.

With an electric motor powered by a lithium-ion battery, the car has a top speed of just over 85 mph and a 90- mile range. It takes seven hours to recharge fully.

There are no local emissions at all, while on a ‘well-to-wheel’ basis, taking into account the CO2 released in the production of the electricity the i MiEV uses, Mitsubishi reckons it emits just 41g/km – far less than the 145g/km of the petrol car it’s based on.
