Mitsu STAYING... absolutely...

iMiev would really give them a big boost in the US...

So lets go Mitsu, get the thing OUT! Your letting nissan catch you.

I would rather drive that than a Smart car. People actually drive those things!

a 40 mpg go cart is not my idea of efficient.

that stupid i-miev has been driving around in circles at the factory MOD for the last 3 years. no developments as far as i can tell. seems like they park it and just bring it out for PR events. i really doubt it'll lead to anything.

This is good to hear, but until they improve the product line more, i just dont see long term viability.

I did a photo op for Mitsu during MOD a couple of months back along with a Mitsubishi Delica and the Outlander sport before it was released. the iMieV is not bad, does look more like an electric car than the leaf but I also agree that it probably wont be in production for sale here anytime soon.

edit:

They're not going to bring the iMiEV here... Wait, is it news that they're not leaving? MMNA is just one small part of a HUGE corporation with more money than they know what to do with. Too bad they make nothing anybody wants besides the Evo. People don't want a new Mitsu anymore, they just settle with one.
