    Range extender !

    If you want better MPG, you just need to add EFI a wideband and $50 is aero streaming. Truly that trailer offers a missed opportunity to make your MIEV into a streamliner Also a VW is only a couple hundred bucks to convert to CNG if you want cleaner and cheaper. and yes all that has been done...

    Interesting article about the used EV market

    With the used Nissan leafs starting out at a retail of $6990 on up, I have to guess that Think & MIEV varients probably aren't too far from there in an auction or private party sale. The party has ended so to say as mericans figure "low" gas prices of nearly $3 means they should buy suburbans...

    gas-powered i Fuel Economy

    It has nothing to do with MEET, US Government, EVEN IF IT WERE 100% IDENTICAL WOULD BAN IT BECAUSE EACH DRIVETRAIN REQUIRES A NEW TEST! That is why we are forced to get specific motors in new cars, for example, I can buy many US spec cars (even big ones) overseas with a 1ltr engine as an...

    Range extender !

    I drive an electric minivan called a miles ZX40, it takes 3.3kw to drive it 25mph. I don't think the MIEV would be any less efficient than that box but who knows? You would have to plot energy consumption at different speeds like they did on the leaf. So I think the effect of 3.3kw would...

    Wheels, Rims, and Tires

    If best means most efficient, the most efficient tire ever made in roughly this size is the legendary RE92 in the 165/65r14 size, if you can make it fit and air it up enough to support the mitsu's weight you should roll much further on those old LRR tires. Understand that is the Honda Insight...

    Mitsubishi announces $6K price drop on 2014 i-MiEV!!!

    Leafs bottom out at about $12k, the cheapest used MIEV I have found is near $13k, if I could find a used one for the price of the "new" after rebate I would be driving one now. :-) I would have to settle for a 2 seater think to get in that ballpark but buying from an out of business company is...

    Mitsubishi announces $6K price drop on 2014 i-MiEV!!!

    $8995 for a new 2012 MIEV seems attractive, too bad I have to live in a very specific part of the country to buy one, also this price is only about $2500 less than a 2014 (if you compare apples to apples without the tax breaks to the starting MSRP of a 2014) Hmm, might have to bribe someone in...
