    Australian Spec i-MiEV

    Even if US version is less efficient I'd love to buy one and import to Europe because I like how it looks. I doubt if anybody has US version here in Europe :) So if anybody wanna sell their iMiEV - pls contact me, I will arrange all shipping and exporting overseas. I prefer dark colours - like...

    iMiEV CdA?

    just to point out that european (narrower) version of iMiEV (and also C-Zero/iOn) have Cd = 0.33 as compared to 0.35 US MIEV. Also new 2013 Leaf has Cd=0.28 (worth pointing out, older Leaf Cd=0.29) :)

    Anyone know this 2012 iMiev at Copart??

    How to determine winning bid amount? This car is really don't worth more than $8K... I wonder what copart thinks... While leaf can be bought for 15K not damaged.... Imievs will be 12K not damaged in spring 2013....

    Anyone know this 2012 iMiev at Copart??

    I wonder what is reserve price of that miev, but could be $15000 which is unacceptable... especially there is now another topic with brand new cars from 2012 with $10000 rebate from Mitsubishi.... I think it is (damaged) not worth more than $8000, there is one new picture showing frame damage...

    How to open rear hatch with dead 12V battery?

    is this one of these flooded imievs from Copart? I saw auctions. Well... I think I would risk connecting 12V to open everything I want - even if car was flooded, connecting 12V but not starting the car will not make any damage, eventually fuse will be blown. But that's only my opinion.

    40 Mile range???

    Also european version has a bit better range than US version - 70 miles should be no problem. This is because of Cx is 0,33 and in US version Cx is 0,35 EU version is narrower, lower & shorten :) I drive Peugeot iOn with 4500km on the clock (about 2800 miles) and range is like it was new. I...

    14.5kWh storage capacity?

    yes but what does it means to battery capacity? ;) I was saying 16kWh vs. 14.5kWh in the same EU model comparing newer & older manual from same car. So I advise any new imiev buyer to check what battery capacity it has ;) Perhaps this is valid for 2013 and not now.

    14.5kWh storage capacity?

    and with better Cx=0.33 and range :) also same kWh capacity (16kWh) I meant newer versions to have 14.5kWh according to user manual (built after 05.2012)

    PREPARATION FOR COLD SEASONS

    I always thought that in Luxembourg there is no big winter... but maybe I'm wrong;) Salt is BAD thing.. maybe better not to drive it in winter and keep in garage? .... I wonder what is the highest temperature without your mod. I assume you got 85 deg celcius with maximum heat (PUSH MAX) possible?

    PREPARATION FOR COLD SEASONS

    Trailer Hitch Installation

    great but for example european version on iMiev has clearly stated that hitch is forbidden, also that train weight is 0kg.... so I think not an good idea to mount trailer hitch on any electric car..
