http://movie.diginfo.tv DigInfo News Related Link: http://www.mitsubishi-motors.co.jp/sp... The i MiEV Sport is Mitsubishi's flagship environmentally friendly electric vehicle. Based on the i MiEV first exhibited in 2006, the Sport features an aerodynamic fastback silhouette concealing an aluminium frame.
The three motor system utilizes two in-wheel motors driving the front wheels and one powering the rear wheels for a maximum speed of 180 km/h and a driving range per charge of 200 km. It also features the S-AWC system which uses torque vectoring technology to send a different amount of torque to any wheel at any given time, which will also be present on the new Lancer Evo 10.
With a long wheel base, the battery is stored under the floor with the motor, inverter and charger beneath the luggage compartment, this layout lowers the center of gravity, optimizes weight distribution and increases the safety of the occupants in the event of a rear end collision.
Using PLC technology, which uses a household power socket as a LAN port and the indoor power wiring as LAN cable, allows the user to connect the car to their home computer to do things such as: preset vehicle recharging, update navigation systems, send or receive email and collect vehicle maintenance information.
Mitsubishi are also developing a microwave wireless charging system to make recharging more convenient, which they hope will boost the future prospect of the electric vehicle.

Repairs for what? How much do you pay to have the oil changed on your laptop? I just had my car in for it's "B" service and it was just under $350. That was for an oil, filter, air filter, and coolant change with a $40 discount. EV's have much less to break down/wear out in a mechanical since. I expect to save about $600 a year on maintenance costs alone.
The only reason I can see for the fans is the drag is already there. If the fan was not there, it would just be a flat surface for the air to bounce off of. But I would like to see the wind tunnel data for the car with and with out the fans.
Even with any necessary tweaking, why criticize such a positive product? Why advocate the many who've kept earth & people friendly solutions from the hands of consumers, in the name of greed and personal profit. :-)
I thought the exact same thing. it's like trying to create perpetual motion. The power coming out of the turbines would be created by the electic movement, so your really just wasting the energy.
True people should have freedom to choose what ever car they want to drive. But gas cars produce large amounts of pollution. There should be laws that stop pollution from cars. That way people can drive zero emission cars.
Sorry, but you've missed the point. I was against regulations on cars. The reason for this being the transfer between petrol and electric cars will happen regardless of regulations, as EV tech improves. Have some faith in humanity, honestly; you don't need to put a gun to anyone's head. Anyway cars aren't the biggest polluter, by far; they're merely a symbol of pollution. They are, ironically, far surpassed by power stations and other forms of industry. They're even beaten by cow flatulance.
