These show the aerodynamics more clearly:




Thanks for this article - it is two years old, but shows how good aero can look. I hope Mitsubishi build this to go up against the Chevy Bolt and 2nd gen Leaf and the Tesla Model 3.

Mitsubishi isn't making it. From what I've read they are killing the miev off and concentrating on suvs from now on. Now maybe we'll see a full BEV cuv along those lines.

It's a shame because I would buy that ca miev tomorrow if they released it just like that with a nice interior and for $30 000

What does anyone know about this? It appears as a thumbnail for a Youtube video (watch?v=1hYCmDhIF08) in which it does not appear.



I'd give extra points if those are triple external door hinges.

Thanks.

GIS found the Youtube pic but no others for me. I think it's called filter bubble.

The detailing is busy (possibly a Morrocan thing), but I think it brings forward the fat-fendered look of the 1930s. 1750hp (if accurate) is a little excessive.
