Another example of needing to carefully hypermile our iMiEV's when going long-distances. Although generally favorable, this reviewer's conclusion is that our iMiEV is only for restricted local driving - which he fails to mention accounts for >95% of typical daily vehicle usage in this country (Ref: http://www.solarjourneyusa.com/EVdistanceAnalysis7.php). Driving from San Francisco to Sacramento is something I certainly wouldn't bother doing it in my iMiEV unless I had CHAdeMO and some time to spare. BTW, he's mistaken, as the iMiEV was released to the American market a full year after the Leaf and Volt; however, he does point out the lack of Mitsubishi marketing of the car: The Mitsubishi debuted as if the carmaker for some reason didn’t want anyone to know about it.
