Mitsubishi i-MiEV Specs, Electric Power & Dimensions (2009–2018) — First Generation
The first-generation Mitsubishi i-MiEV is a compact Mini 5-doors electric city car. Rear-wheel drive and a single-speed automatic keep the layout simple, with two battery sizes covering everyday urban driving.
Mitsubishi i-MiEV horsepower comes from a rear electric motor, not a petrol engine, so you get quiet, instant pull from a standstill. The 10.5 kWh and 16 kWh Mini 5-doors examples share the same electric powertrain layout—automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive—while the larger pack mainly stretches range.
