The iMiev needs a 100 mile battery to survive.

I always keep a can or two of generic fix a flat in my cars. If I have a flat, I am not about to uninstall the rear seat to get at it. Fix a flat has bailed me out numerous times. It does not ruin tires. They can be plugged or patched after using it. It does not normally ruin the pressure...

I often do it. With no heat or a/c, it preserves your range.

I just hope that with the price of gasoline right now, that the whole EV trend doesn't get flushed down the toilet. With the US now producing more oil and gas than ever, with Canada looking to pipe more of its oil to southern ports, with the economy slowing down in China, and with Saudi Arabia...

I live in the NYC area, and my Miev has the chademo charger outlet...and I know of no level 2 or 3 charging stations within my driving area, other than level 2 chargers in paid parking lots. I knew of this when I bought the car. My attitude is that I bought the car knowing full well that I...

As BEVs catch on, and DCQC equipment comes down in price as it already has, I predict that gas stations will indeed install these units. They will want to draw the "captive" EV driver who has to wait 20 minutes to fill up. They have an opportunity to sell lots of coffee, cigarettes, and...

Suppose those DC quick chargers were at gas stations at the exits of the highway. Wouldn't it have simplified things?

70 to 80 degree water isn't going to give you any appreciable heat.

Even with 2 or 3 people in the car, I am usually successful keeping the windows clear by simply running the fan on low with no heat or AC. Fresh Air, not recirculated.

Just guessing, but I would look for a loose fuse first. I had that issue and my radio went out, and the lights that go with it, also the turn signal speaker, and maybe another thing or two...

While I do feel for the op, condemning MM over this is not fair. Perhaps you would have rather had a GMC product with a bad ignition switch and a cover up.

IMHO, you don't fuel up your car at a restaurant or a store. You fuel-up at a fueling station...in common terms, a gas station. This is where the quick chargers should be. Everybody would know where to find them. Look, somebody's gotta make a buck on this. Maybe independent station owners...

I didn't get to do a test drive but I got to sit in one last week. Banged my head getting in and out of the car. The seat and steering wheel position for driving compared to entering and exiting the car had to be changed. Ergonomically, this would not work for me. It is a super looking car...

I saw a Tesla S on display today in NYC. $111,000. 85 kw battery. Cool looking car but I bumped my head getting in and out. The imiev is just so much more practical for the price.

My light came on. Researched it here, but did not take seat out. Does anybody know how to reset it other than bring it to the dealer? Would a scan Guage work?

I find other drivers are more aggressive towards me when I drive my Prius than when I drive the iMiev. The iMiev is like an oddity. The Prius is a hated symbol of "liberalism".

I was hoping to buy this one, but the 12 foot cord was a deal breaker for me.

So far, I've only wished I had an L2 maybe once per year.

I think the price of these things is still ridiculous.

my goodness...just use the tires that come with the car and call it a day.
