Article Summary
March 1, 2006 Mitsubishi finally rolled back the curtain on the Mitsubishi Concept-EZ MIEV 4WD mono-box concept at the 76th Geneva International Motor Show today. The Concept-EZ1 MIEV2 showcases the company's MIEV concept for next-generation electric vehicles that employs in-wheel motors and a high energy-density lithium-ion battery system as core technologies. In the absence of a centerline powertrain, the vehicle interior is far more flexible than a traditional auto design and can be reconfigured into different seating arrangements, having a lounge mode (a conference room-like space with the seats arranged in a circle), a transport mode (cavernous luggage space with the rear seats stowed under the floor) and a driving mode (with spacious and comfortable seating for five adults).
