iMotor Mitsubishi iMIEV Test Drive

[meda789]

i have mixed feeling about this car and this sort of technology, yes its good for the environment and yes i wouldnt mind it in city driving or in villages (like u guys have in UK), but i dont like that they make it feel and look so much of "look at this prototype car" they should make it blend in more. but in countries like australia and usa (but especially australia, a range of 80-100 miles isnt even enough for some people to get down to the shops.i could type alot more but charac. limit is500

@meda789 Perhaps people should start living closer to the shops then? In Norway electrical cars are heavily supported by the system as the majority of people could easily use this as their primary car. Naturally in our country practically all of the electricity is from renewable resources as well. I am seriously considering getting one of these iMiev's which would save me a lot of money as well.

give me a Turbo model... How far could you reasonable drive this car... maybe 80miles in normal traffic?

[sookoll23]

@biscuitninja Turbo? I'm afraid the engine won't have anything to do with the extra air.

Turn off the wiper, safe energy, may be enough to go less than 10 km per day :)

Yes the Nissan Leaf look better, But I still will be getting a i MIEV as my car I will drive. But not having millions of charging points is the real problem ! The sooner the better. There is NO excuse !! The cars are here !! Nissan, Mitsubishi and Renault and others !!

As with the other comments, the arguement is pretty well old fashioned. Even if charging from current grid EV's are very much less polluting than ICE cars. Plus power stations can be cleaned up (scrubbers, carbon catching, lean burning etc) but 'normal cars' will become less efficient over their lives.

Wait till gas is 10 bucks a gallon, you'll see those 12 mpg SUVs parked and people driving this or taking the bus.

Nice review, but there´s a lot of recharge points with free parking place in London, you doesnt need the long wired. XD

[JRP3]

Actually I thought it was a pretty good review of the vehicle, though indeed they should have mentioned it pollutes less even charging from coal than any ICE vehicle.

[roykaz]

Even if the power came from coal the imiev is less pollute then hybrids of today. Poor documentary;(((
