Tokyo, Japan - Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (MMC) announced that it reached 5,000 units of its i-MiEV new generation electric vehicle (EV) produced at its Mizushima Plant as of November 23rd.
MMC was first in the world to start production of a full-fledged mass production EV with the i-MiEV in June of 2009. The month after that MMC introduced the i-MiEV to the Japanese market, and has sold about 3,000 units to individuals and businesses nationwide (as of end October 2010).
