My truck is on it’s last legs…or, should I say wheels? Anyway, I am hoping for another year out of it so that I can finish paying off the car we had to buy 2 years ago! We went for 10 years with no car payments, I don’t want to deal with TWO!

According to the Mitsubishi i website, this is the most affordable electric vehicle in the entire United States! There are a ton of federal and state tax incentives out there right now, too, which makes this a great time to buy an electric car! So, here are a few statistics about the MiEV (as it is being called!).
- Spacious Interior: seats four with lots of leg and headroom
- Three Drive Modes: Choose between maximum fun, maximum economy and maximum regenerative brake power.
- MiEV Remote Control: Pre-heat or pre-cool the cabin and set your preferred charging time from a distance.
- Rear-Wheel Drive: Improves handling and increases cabin space without sacrificing performance.
- Available HDD Navigation: Enjoy Real-Time Traffic, Diamond Lane Guidance, turn-by-turn directions and a rearview camera.
- Regenerative Brakes: A clever braking system automatically reclaims the energy from deceleration and charges the battery.
So, you’re thinking this is a great sounding car, aren’t you? If you want to check this car out in person, you have a couple of options! You can find a dealer in your area using their dealer locator. Or, if you live in the Pacific Northwest or California, you are in luck because the Mitsubishi i is going on tour in your area!

How cool! I love the way it looks!
It’s very “space-age-ish”. How cool!
Very cool! I can’t see too many texans giving up their big cars for one, but I think they’ll find a very receptive market in Southern California.
Thank you for the informative article, Diane!
I wish there were places to plug in your car at fast food places and stores! Hopefully in the future there will be!
Very cool! And hey, I live not too far from one of the tour stops!
I would love to test drive an electric car!
