Hydro and the city of Vancouver signed with Mitsubishi for tests of the world’s first production-ready, highway-capable electric car.
The Mitsubishi i MiEV is a new zero-emission, pure electric car with extended range that will be tested by Hydro and the city, according to a memorandum of understanding announced at BC Hydro’s corporate headquarters in downtown Vancouver.
Vancouver joins just a handful of cities around the world that have signed on with Mitsubishi to conduct performance tests of the i MiEV this year.
“We are committed to green technologies and to leading the way in electric car development,” Mitsubishi Motor Sales of Canada president and CEO Koji Soga said in the press release.
