Mitsubishi electric i-MiEV part of UK government trial

As consumers begin to demand more efficient cars, manufacturers are quickly implementing new models to meet these needs. Mitsubishi has recently developed the i-MiEV, a fully electric vehicle that can reach speeds up to 80mph and be charged to 80 percent in about twenty minutes. The i-MiEV is now enrolled in a trial program in which it has been distributed to customers in the midlands of the UK.

While this car is only available on a trial basis on another continent, vendors as local as Bloomington IL car dealers hope to see this model in their lots very soon. The Mitsubishi i-MiEV is an electric version of the company’s rear engined “i” city car which features four-doors and four-seats. These features are practical, allow accessibility, and offer an affordable lifestyle, details Bloomington Mitsubishi dealer believes are a great value to consumers.

More details about the i-MiEV are expected as the model continues to run trials, however Bloomington car dealerships are confident the car will only gain popularity with its growing publicity. UK city councils are so excited about the Mitsubishi trials they plan to install electrical charging points for the cars. The i-MiEV is not only affordable and convenient but it has potential to greatly reduce carbon emissions. If the trials continue as planned we hope the i-MiEV will be available at Bloomington Mitsubishi dealer in the near future.

The UK trials of the Mitsubishi i-MiEV are in the works in order to gather information for the development of this car in particular as well as electric car strategy in general. After these trials the i-MiEV will be even more consumer ready and shortly after released to Bloomington IL car dealers. Mitsubishi continues to strive to produce visually stunning, efficient and affordable cars available at your local dealerships.  Check out the current Mitsubishi models and find out more about future projects such as the i-MiEV at Bloomington IL car dealers and Bloomington Mitsubishi.
