2010 Mitsubishi iMiEV – 16 kWh (12 kWh useable) allows the Micro iMiEV a 60 + mile AER.
Mitsubishi delivered 4 of its award winning i-MiEV BEVs to the Principality of Monaco with Prince Albert II on hand at the delivery ceremony held at the Prince's Palace.
The Principality of Monaco is proactively seeking ways to combat environmental issues and to replace domestic transportation with low-CO2-emitting electric vehicles. The country signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Mitsubishi regarding fleet testing of the iMiEV back in late March of 2009. According to the terms of the MoU, the i-MiEVs were delivered to the Principality of Monaco beginning yesterday.
According to the terms of the MoU, the Principality of Monaco plans to promote electric vehicles through the use of the i-MiEVs at its local community service organizations, including the post office, public parking services, the Monegasque electricity company (SMEG) and the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation.
The new-generation i-MiEV was launched in Japan in July 2009. Looking to move towards full-fledged global distribution in 2010, Mitsubishi is involved in global testing and promotional activities in New Zealand, the United States and across Europe.
