Aren’t you the clever one?

EVs are heavier. Batteries are heavy, That will probably change.

Ka sounds like the first half of caca which is derived from the Greek kakke meaning human excrement. Do you suppose Ford sold you only half a turd?

My Ford Ka has 60 HP (not 107, and there’s even a 40 HP model!), it weighs less than 1000 kg (not 1300) and I can drive comfortably for hours at 130 km/h with 3 passengers on board– also it has superb design and the best driveability of all 20 cars I owned in my life.

So, can anyone explain why Mitsubishi should want to promote EVs with a car 30% heavier and almost twice more powerful than necessary — moreover at a time of history where everybody agrees that less can be more?

The answer is: Mitsubitshi simply doesn’t want to promote EVs (or maybe isn’t allowed by Big Oil to do so for good)…

BTW: miev is the root of mièvre in French, meaning fragile, and in German it’s pronounced the same as mief, meaning sticky (air) — similarly, e-tron (Audi) sounds like étron in French, meaning a sausage of poop, and i8 (BMW) sounds like I ‘ate, meaning I hate in Bronx slang (not quite sure about that one)…

But the worst is indeed C-zéro (Citroën) pronouncing like c’est zéro, which means it’s BS…

This new MIEV looks really good. Much better than the current version.

If they can reduce the price to Leaf-ish levels this may give the Volt and a Leaf some serious competition.
