I like the whole electric concept but I think I can speak for the average American buyer - dam what an ugly tiny car! Americana have style and flavor if Mitsubishi doesn't consider this a useful concept will not get far. I can adjust my palate for the Toyota Prius but dam I don't care how " zippy and cool" it's suppose to be it is an eyesore first !
Everyone thinks in a few years electric cars will be mass produced and the price will come down but there wrong, as recources including oil, metal, rubber and plastic's run low the cost of building any vehicle will increase dramaticly, only the wealthy will be on the road in another twenty years, we will be lucky if we can afford a tyre for a bicycle as the price of rubber will go through the roof as most things depend on oil to produce rubber included...
@jabawokingkong THEY WILL BECOME AFFORDABLE WITH TIME.....Remember paying 600 dollars for a VCR ? 3,000 dollars for a laptop computer ?? I do, because in 1987 I paid close to $ 700 for a Mitsubishi stereo VCR, and in 1998 I paid close to 3,000 dollars for a laptop......Big screen TV's were thousands of dollars when they first came out....Cheers...
and there is hundreds of differnt types of fuel out ther that we havent use yet did you know that for a sample effinal and it is a lot cleaner and alot better than any battery not engine
@TheSweettooth95 ELECTRIC CARS WILL FILL THE ROAD WITHIN FIVE YEARS AS GASOLINE PRICES REACH 5 TO 8 DOLLARS PER GALLON.....DON'T BELIEVE ME, JUST SIT BACK AND WATCH THE SHOW....GAS WILL SKYROCKET IN PRICE AS INDIA AND CHINA DEMAND MORE AND MORE OF THE WORLD'S OIL PRODUCTION, AND AS SPECULATORS BID UP THE PRICE PER BARREL......
@TheSweettooth95 Oh man the most ignorant comment i have EVER seen. You realize that gas is just fossil fuels left behind by dinosaurs right? Electric Vehicles WILL be the future. In current production, the Evo XI for example. Two engines, one electric one diesel hybrid. total output, 350HP according to officials. That's enough to spank ANY gas driven car under 70 Thousand. So dude, give electricity a chance. Remember that it travels quicker than what your brain is thinking.
And when the OEMs start using Lithium Phosphate cells instead of these dangerous Lithium Oxide cells, I'll be first in line. Til then, just build your own.
@fifafan1 Hydrogen is the least energy dense matter on the planet. It will never be viable for transportation. It's not suitable either for fuel cells or internal combustion.
I think if they would make the electric cars look more like traditional compact cars, they might sell more. The point is to reduce the "toy" look they give off.
once this type of car become popular,we going to have another type of crises....
energy demand way too high....what's probaly going to happend in the future is.... to avoid be waiting to recharge your batt. they will come up with battery exchange...go to a "gas station" and exchange your batt. with a recharged one.
This was a very well made review. Unfortunately, I'm not a big fan of the car. I bought the Nissan Leaf. It is 1,000 times better than this car. If any car company wants people to buy their car, be it electric or gasoline, they have to keep looks in mind. A cool looking car always sells better than an ugly car. Unfortunately, this vehicle is just not attractive. Also the Leaf is a lot more high-tech feeling inside.
Right now I'm looking at the Chevy Volt but I really like the Leaf. You seem to get "more car" (as far as options like the large screen media system) with the Leaf. Lee's Summit has already installed an electric charging station in it's underground city garage and is accessible to everyone (currently you can sign up for free charges).
We are seriously thinking of getting one of these since I rarely ever drive outside our city here in 70769. We keep 2 cars so an electric as a daily driver would fit us perfectly the prius would be the new gas guzzler in our family? None of this is happening soon since we have prius and Xb paid for. Debt is not a good thing in our family and we will wait till some dumb ass sells their electric car cause they needed a tow when they ran out of juice.
i don't have a problem with making or buying one but why does it cost so much to get these cars from the companys it cost less just take take a light weight frame of a car and get 50 miles making one your self.
I think introducing electric cars to the market is a fantastic idea, but retiring other vehicles (i.e., Eclipse) in favor of electric vehicles is a different story. If I was running a car company, I couldn't bring in electric cars at the cost of alienating my sports car buyers.
I believe that nowadays it should be possible to introduce electric cars and keep building sports cars without losing any buyers. If Mitsubishi hadn't retired the Eclipse, I'm sure people would still be happy.
@lorddoa I hope you realize that that is false, number 1. Practically NO electricity comes from oil. It comes from coal. And, secondly, most of the world's energy will be forced to STOP coming from oil, one way or the other, as drilling for oil becomes not worth the cost in terms of energy. And, solar and wind are both sufficient once we build the solar and wind farms.
But you are too stupid to get these facts, because you do not have the mental capacity to do math.
@mphello coal and oil are made of the same thing. Dead organic matter compressed for millions of years. Look I don't want to get in a troll war with you. I'm sorry, lets move on with our lives
That still doesn't mean "all our electricity comes from oil".
It DOES mean "all our electricity comes from dead organic matter". Clearly, morons like you do not have the brains to know that a statement does not imply its converse.
@mphello The dumb ass American public is the best friend an oil company ever had. My electric car costs 2 cents a mile and my gas car costs 14 cents a mile. If there was a free fuel, we would still think of reasons not to use it. I drive my EV to and from work and get groceries with it. Perfect 2nd car and I drive it 80% of the time. Plugs in at work and at home. No problem.
@Alvord1430 = The dumb ass American public is the best friend an oil company ever had.=
I agree. Just had to fight off yet another anthropogenic global warming (AGW)-denying asshole on the internet just now.
I bought an electric-assist trike this year (arrived in August after a 3-month wait). Am using it instead of my car. May get the courage next month to turn in my license plates, give up my auto insurance, and be forced to rely ENTIRELY on the trike for transportation.
@Alvord1430 DON'T BE TOO HARD ON THE AMERICAN CONSUMER, as they have been brainwashed by the oil companies and car makers for many decades.....Back in the 1950's and 1960's Chevy commercials made Americans feel as poor patriots if they did not purchase a Chevy.......Now we have a population which even equates high speed trains with being a communist.......SAD.......
However, EVERY car in the world has parts from ALL OVER. So, it is IDIOTIC and STUPID to have these NATIONALISTIC FEUDS over which "country" produces the better car. It's CORPORATIONS which produce cars, not countries.
Back in 1990, I deliberately chose to buy a Dodge Sundance, because I wanted to "support an American company and American workers". But, now I realize it was POINTLESS, and has become even MORE pointless since parts come
@mphello .. from all over the world and there is no freakin' practical way of knowing, let alone controlling, where the parts of a car that I purchase come from.
This year, I bought an electric-assist tricycle from Omega Stores in America. But, the trike was mostly built in China with the electric parts built in Germany. ALL my options sucked for an electric-assist trike.
I intend to replace my car with it.
THAT is the only way to survive the end of oil and fight global warming.
"Americanized - wider than usual for fat Americans"
Stop repeating false generalizations about Americans. It is BULLSHIT that there is an "obesity epidemic" in America. And, even if there is - SO WHAT? Nothing wrong with being fat.
You hypocritically attack fat people, but you don't attack REAL problems:
the needless murder and torture of BILLIONS of animals for meat each year.
We need a massive investment in biotech synthetic meat. Until then, veganism needs to be mandatory.
@mphello Secondly, you fail to condemn the OTHER true atrocity and injustice, besides factory farming:
human breeding. There is NO need for humans to reproduce themselves. That is PURE selfishness and greed. That is something people and governments CAN do something about. If they won't stop breeding voluntarily, we can pass laws and mandate vasectomies for men.
But, there is PRACTICALLY nothing people can do about their genetics, how fat they get.
Well done, honest overview. Every year we are getting closer options besides imported oil. When oil breaks $6 next oil crises electrics will be ready.
how is the reliability on fully electric car really?? do u have to warm up first before u go off?? and and do u have to drain the battery well before u recharge it?? and do u have to fully recharge it as well before unplugging it??? sorry too many question cause i dont have a single damn clue about electric vehicle.
damn it guys it is by mo means the holly grails of the automotive world... well thanks to Chevron it is a bit.. but we did have about 4 automakers making full electric cars in the late 90's, for example the EV-1 the stock batteries could carry the car for about 150km on a charge... but then Chevron bought manufacturing and patent rights on a new battery type that could carry the vehicle for more than 200km. Toyota had their RAV4-EV, ford had the Ranger-EV... my point is, we already had them :(
If that happens in a million years and i would own a electric car, the boot will be alot smaller then normal cause I have to carry around a generator all the time :)
0:35 Americanized - wider than usual for fat Americans. Arent Americans ashamed of themsemlves?! THis is pathetic. I do not want to insult them but there has to be done something about this. And this is the nation that sent a man to the Moon. Where is health care athorities to raise awareness and promote healthier eating and living.
@whatever04811 Have you ever seen an American in a group of Japanese people? It's not diet that makes us bigger; it's genetics -- almost an extra foot of height and arm span on average.
@whatever04811 i totally agree with you. in america is normal to looks fat, its the norm over here. fat people disgust me! theres many reasons to blame why were so fat, im not fat, but lots of people are
@whatever04811 I'm 6-feet tall and 176 lbs. I'm not overweight for my height, but my body frame is larger than a typical Asian man. So a wider car is appreciated.
@whatever04811 the reason they made it wider is because asian citys are small and more compact and in america it is way bigger highways compared to eruopean citys and all that, not because were fat and we already do but thats why were home of the free we can do anything we want to do so we can chose if we want to eat healthy. Plus we have bigger familys to so thats why we have alot of suvs.
@BALJIT147 That would be amazing! Why do electric cars have to look like this always! like Mitsubishi, come on, you designed the badass EVO, why couldnt u make this better?
@BALJIT147 Not really, they were gonna stop making the EVO but EVO fans protested until Mitsubishi said they decided to keep the EVO. However, the Eclipse, Galant, and Endeavor are dead. It's sad especially for the Eclipse because I really liked the Eclipse. I really dont know why Mitsu is doing this, they should keep making cars like the Lancer, Outlander, etc. Not electric crap cars. The three diamonds are losing their grace...

I like it but at the same time I dont, my job is only 4 miles away so thats 8 miles total a day but what if I want to go to san deago again, I would have to either get a rental or use my gas guzzler car that only gets 12mpg but I know it will get me there and back because it has already. At this point I wish a car manufacturer would make a nice looking 4 door car with the battery covering the entire trunk with either flip up rear seats or under seat storage just to get rid of the range problem.
@wilburfudd Go and buy a new Honda Civic HF, you'll get 42 MPG, and it's the same price. Plus with a gasoline engine you can always upp the fuel economy by adding a K&N sports air fiter, fitting lighter rims, sports spark plugs ect.
@jacoale lmfao my thoughts haha. My coup deville is an entire half a car wider than most ever car made after it lmfao. Its as wide as three or four smart cars haha, I swear.... its like a titanic compared to them, and like a yacht compared to this lol.
@oldschool1 because the motorcycle is even less safe, and nobody wants used :) I wouldnt personally buy one, but given the chance id have the Chevy Volt. At least its American :)
@deedundone The Chevy Volt is the biggest joke of a car ever. It's an expensive, less efficient, less reliable Prius. It requires plugging in, yet still needs gas, and even with the electric motor factored in it gets less mileage than a Prius, while costing MORE than a Prius, and has the reliability of a Chevy rather than of a Toyota.
@yakovgolyadkin Thats definately true but owning a chevy volt doesnt mean you've given up on life unlike the prius.... But of all that... just buy a deisel and get 70 mpg... and it can be cheaper than a prius
@yakovgolyadkin less mileage?? maybe you should do some research, with the electric motor fully charged the volt gets about 97mpg where as the prius gets roughly 50mpg
@yakovgolyadkin ummm, its actually MORE efficient real world than a prius and its more powerfu, lol, the PRIUS is a joke, a 80's Fiesta got better mpg's
@yakovgolyadkin You're absolutely absurd. The Volt may need to be plugged in but it can be driven for 70 miles without using gas. That's a huge advantage over the Prius, or any hybrid competitor right now. The only joke is you, and your ridiculous views on innovative automotive exploration. BTW. The more people that buy Volts the more Chevy can produce amazing vehicles ZR1s and RS SS its all about the CAFE numbers! FOOL!
@JaisenJames Chevy admits that it has a maximum range of 35 miles on the electric motor, with a realistic city range of closer to 20-25 miles. Nice try, though.
@yakovgolyadkin Tell it to my 1990 Coup De Ville. Reliability of a Toyota my ass. I will drive my American cars until they die :) What you do say about the Volt is Overly true however, I wont argue it! Personally Im waiting for ford to come out with there cars, and, Ive always been a Nissan guy as well. Just my opinions.
@AdrianC12345 Yeah, it's get 97 mpg UNTIL the batteries die (after about 35 miles), and then only 40mpg or (probably) less (depends on driving style) on the gasoline engine. But the the Prius ALWAYS gets 50mpg.
@yakovgolyadkin dude get your facts right. The Volt gets much better mileage than the Prius. You need your head checked. If you drive less than 40 miles, then you don't "need" gas. And the quality of a Chevy is better than a Toyota. I do remember Toyota's record breaking recalls not too long ago
@InsurgenceRX The realistic range of the electric motor in the Volt is 20-25 miles, not 40. The claimed range is only 35. After that runs out, the car is running on an engine that gets only 37 mpg.
And no, the quality of Chevy isn't better than Toyota. What about GM's recent 1.5 million car recall for the possibility of fire? Or their recall of Corvettes for the possibility of the roof flying off?
All manufacturers have recalls. But I see a lot more Toyotas lasting 200k+ miles than Chevys.
@yakovgolyadkin don't you realise the volt is a brilliant idea and it's the future. the engine in order to extend the range was a brilliant idea, so good that bmw is using it in their i3 and i8 models. Essencially, the Volt is a electric car with it's own powerplant and it can run 40 miles in electricity alone and it can go up by filling it with gas. AND how is it less efficient? It does an average of 100+ mpg, combining electricity and gas
@yakovgolyadkin First of all you're American and you should support you're economy by buying American car which are the best in the world.Second of all Chevy Volt is way better than a Prius,more reliable,better looking,more efficient(how can you say is less efficient?Prius is a hybrid that does 40 Mpg,the Volt does 120 Mpg),the japanese car reliability is just fake ! Oh and the interior is 100 times better in the Volt ! Both this car do more damage to the environment than a Hummer !
@weedmastersr No, I don't have to buy an American can because I'm American. American companies make shit cars.
The Volt hasn't been out long enough for reliability to be accurately measured, and it's ugly.
Nice made up numbers there. The Prius gets 60+ mpg, while the Volt gets 37 on the gas engine and 93 mpge on the electric, which only lasts 20-25 miles.
If Japanese reliability is fake, how come I see many, MANY more early 10+ year old Japanese cars on the road than American cars?
@weedmastersr Your profile lists you as being from Borsec, Romania, yet you have "GOD BLESS AMERICA!" on your page, and a profile picture of an eagle head superimposed over an American flag. Who are you to tell me if I am worthy of my citizenship in the country I was born and raised in? What is it with you silly Ea

@Alvord1430 DON'T BE TOO HARD ON THE AMERICAN CONSUMER, as they have been brainwashed by the oil companies and car makers for many decades.....Back in the 1950's and 1960's Chevy commercials made Americans feel as poor patriots if they did not purchase a Chevy.......Now we have a population which even equates high speed trains with being a communist.......SAD.......

Ford cars are pieces of shit. NEVER buy a Ford.
However, EVERY car in the world has parts from ALL OVER. So, it is IDIOTIC and STUPID to have these NATIONALISTIC FEUDS over which "country" produces the better car. It's CORPORATIONS which produce cars, not countries.
Back in 1990, I deliberately chose to buy a Dodge Sundance, because I wanted to "support an American company and American workers". But, now I realize it was POINTLESS, and has become even MORE pointless since parts come

@mphello .. from all over the world and there is no freakin' practical way of knowing, let alone controlling, where the parts of a car that I purchase come from.
This year, I bought an electric-assist tricycle from Omega Stores in America. But, the trike was mostly built in China with the electric parts built in Germany. ALL my options sucked for an electric-assist trike.
I intend to replace my car with it.
THAT is the only way to survive the end of oil and fight global warming.

"Americanized - wider than usual for fat Americans"
Stop repeating false generalizations about Americans. It is BULLSHIT that there is an "obesity epidemic" in America. And, even if there is - SO WHAT? Nothing wrong with being fat.
You hypocritically attack fat people, but you don't attack REAL problems:
the needless murder and torture of BILLIONS of animals for meat each year.
We need a massive investment in biotech synthetic meat. Until then, veganism needs to be mandatory.

@mphello Secondly, you fail to condemn the OTHER true atrocity and injustice, besides factory farming:
human breeding. There is NO need for humans to reproduce themselves. That is PURE selfishness and greed. That is something people and governments CAN do something about. If they won't stop breeding voluntarily, we can pass laws and mandate vasectomies for men.
But, there is PRACTICALLY nothing people can do about their genetics, how fat they get.

@deedundone The Chevy Volt is the biggest joke of a car ever. It's an expensive, less efficient, less reliable Prius. It requires plugging in, yet still needs gas, and even with the electric motor factored in it gets less mileage than a Prius, while costing MORE than a Prius, and has the reliability of a Chevy rather than of a Toyota.

@InsurgenceRX The realistic range of the electric motor in the Volt is 20-25 miles, not 40. The claimed range is only 35. After that runs out, the car is running on an engine that gets only 37 mpg.
And no, the quality of Chevy isn't better than Toyota. What about GM's recent 1.5 million car recall for the possibility of fire? Or their recall of Corvettes for the possibility of the roof flying off?
All manufacturers have recalls. But I see a lot more Toyotas lasting 200k+ miles than Chevys.

Essencially, the Volt is a electric car with it's own powerplant and it can run 40 miles in electricity alone and it can go up by filling it with gas. AND how is it less efficient? It does an average of 100+ mpg, combining electricity and gas
