The i MiEV electric car allows Mitsubishi to come closer to its stated goal of having 20% of their cars be electric or plug-in hybrid electric by the year 2020. Nor is the i MiEV the only electric car that Mitsubishi has to offer. The Concept PX-MiEV, a plug-in hybrid with 141 mpg, will soon be presented to the public. Mitsubishi also plans to install the environmental technologies that it already has, such as the ClearTec, in the models currently being designed.
