Theophilus Chin’s rendering of a Peugeot-ized i-MiEV
Mitsubishi and Peugeot have finalised its EV agreement where Mitsubishi will be supplying PSA Peugeot Citroen with an electric car for the European market based on the Mitsubishi i-MiEV. Both Citroen and Peugeot-badged vehicles will be available, and production will start in October 2010, with a launch happening shortly after.

Will this be made available in Malaysia? But we're still without support right when it comes to EV? Would make the country a little less hotter if everyone's using EV, but that's wishful thinking.
Great looking baby lion!
isn it tata nano??…
Looks dated if you ask me. Expect some nip-tuck from Peugeot to freshen things up.
Mitsubishi is not only supply engines to many car manufacturers (including China-based & P1 previously) but also supplying the whole car as well! Looks more like OEM company.
And they can have their own line of vehicles. Very smart.
no , they cannot enter our market, we will let proton to start…our market, our money,our business. u want to make money here…then give me undertable money
Ewww…. Looks weird… Mitsu looks a tons more better

Mufassa, how much you want? :p
ould ahve made more sense with the 107 platform no? maybe Toyota had something to say with that?
It would great if this can be made available here with a price dat is affordable (unlike the Prius) providing an alternative. If we are going to be environmentally conscious … Vehicles of such genre ought to be reachable to the masses instead of being a premium product owned by a select few. Mother is gonna need more help in that venue … Haiz~! When will we ever learn?
Mother Earth still needs help …. but I thought Theophilus' impression looks better than the actual … Cie la Vie …
Many of my friends like to have EV n me too but, do you think petrol producer will be happy? This will cut down their profit n tax to gov too.
Some one there will try to prevent or delay .. with false pretenses.
