Mitsubishi MiEV visits Monaco, readies Euro homologation
The little Principality of Monaco is keeping up its role in the media spotlight for their EV efforts. The small country will soon be the location of the first European tests of the all-electric Mitsubishi MiEV, still expected to go on sale in 2010. Of course, the Japanese vehicle will probably be put on sale in the UK before the Continent because it is right hand drive, but who's counting. As you can see in the pic, the MiEV was recently part of a promo photo with Prince Albert II of Monaco as part of the vehicle's Continental introduction (but, if you consider Iceland to be in Europe, then this wasn't the premiere). In case you've missed our previous coverage, the MiEV has a 120 mile range and can quick charge in under 30 minutes.

"...if you consider Iceland to be in Europe..."
well, perhaps you're supposed to consider Iceland to be a part of Arctis . . . . . . . . . . . ?
...and that "Xavier" is considered an ancient Mozambique name ... ?
Dunno ifit's the season or what - lately ther've been some mindboggling entrances here on ABG ...
( anyone calling yet another version of the antique combustion engine something along the line of 'a fine new development step in the right direction' - - - is really out of touch !!! )
