MITSUBISHI I-MIEV - A GREAT LITTLE EV

EV Channels Review

This video chronicles a 120-mile journey to collect a Mitsubishi i-Miev, highlighting its suitability for local use despite its small battery and limited range. The reviewer notes the i-Miev's DC rapid charging capability as a key convenience. During the drive, the car's range indicator proved unreliable, fluctuating significantly and causing anxiety as the battery depleted, especially on inclines. While the reviewer acknowledges the i-Miev's comfort and features for its class, they emphasize that its true value lies in town driving, where its limitations are less apparent. The charging experience at a third-party station was marred by app issues and a slow charge time. Ultimately, the reviewer concludes that for its low running cost (£4 for 120 miles), the i-Miev is a fantastic option for local journeys, provided users accept the minor inconveniences associated with its range and charging.
