iMiEV FAQ
3
WHERE WILL THE CAR BE BUILT?
Mizushima, Japan.
WHAT KIND OF STEREO DOES IT HAVE?
The Mitsubishi i is equipped with a standard 100 Watt, 6 speaker AM/FM/CD audio system.
CAN I PLUG IN MY IPOD?
You can plug in your iPod and select tunes by genre, playlist, artist, and album—by using a USB adapter kit.
WILL THE MITSUBISHI I HAVE CRUISE CONTROL?
Sorry, cruise control is not available. But cruising in the Mitsubishi i is highly encouraged.
WILL IT COME WITH A SUNROOF?
Our designers purposely decided against a sunroof since it would add extra weight and could affect the Mitsubishi i’s all-important drag coefcient.
It’s decisions like these that give the Mitsubishi i best-in-class efciency.
CAN I INSTALL A ROOF RACK?
A roof rack is not available since it could affect the Mitsubishi i’s drag coefcient. It’s true: Our designers think of everything.
I’VE HEARD THAT EVS DON’T REQUIRE CERTAIN TYPES OF FLUIDS THAT ARE PRESENT IN GAS-POWERED CARS.
IS THAT THE CASE WITH THE MITSUBISHI I?
Absolutely. Say goodbye to frequent oil changes. We’ve completely replaced the gas-powered engine with an all-electric motor and battery so there’s no
need for engine oil changes commonly required in gas powered cars. This translates into less maintenance visits (and expenses) you’ll have to deal with
over the life of your car.
Battery & Charging
HOW FAR CAN THE MITSUBISHI I GO ON A SINGLE CHARGE?
Based on independent EPA testing, the Mitsubishi i can travel 62 miles
1
on a full charge, in typical driving conditions. Incidentally, the EPA’s MPGe
ratings came in at 126 City and 99 Highway for a combined 112 MPGe—making the Mitsubishi i one of the most efcient electric vehicle in its class.

WHAT FACTORS AFFECT THE DRIVING RANGE?
Many different factors, such as hot or cold temperatures, vehicle speed, percent grade of roadway, and use of either the cabin heater or the air
conditioning system can reduce driving range. On the other hand, it’s possible to increase the range of the vehicle by driving more slowly and
using the heater and air conditioning sparingly.
DOES THE BATTERY DRAIN WHEN YOU ARE NOT MOVING?
No, when the vehicle is not moving the primary battery system does not lose charge. This makes the Mitsubishi i ideal for urban areas with heavy
trafc congestion. Because, unlike a gasoline-powered car, the Mitsubishi i doesn’t “idle” in trafc, burning fuel while you sit there.
