    Questions before buying

    There are numerous CHAdeMo Chargers in the St. Louis area. The key here is you must determine if the car your looking at has the CHAdeMo port. in 2012 it was an option on ES models, It was not available on SE models, except on the SE premium package it was standard. On all other MY's 2014, 2016...

    Used 2012 I-miev remote climate control

    Several years ago I remember hearing that a replacement remote was in the neighborhood of $900-$1000 dollars. Since the car has been an orphan in North America since the 2017 model year, getting a new one from Mitsubishi might be difficult. Likely not Impossible since the car is still sold in...

    Electrify America CHAdeMO Possible Issue

    To be quite fair Electrify America's network has always been buggy. It frequently Locks, quits, fails to initiate. Software on their screens have to be re-booted. Maybe just a buggy unit on the day (s) you visited?

    Want to Buy 2016+ iMiev

    This 2016 one only has 150 miles. Literally a brand new car! Unfortunately it's a long way from you. Located in Illinois. Having a car shipped is not a big deal nowadays, as a lot of cars are sold via the internet...

    CHAdeMO or no CHAdeMO question

    What Don has posted here is absolutely true and complete, yet he fails to mention anywhere in his post , that he is referring to the 2012 model year only which was the first year that the i-miev was available in North America. It was also sold in model years 2014, 2016, and 2017. In those...

    Just posted my 2017 iMiEV Review to Youtube

    You state in your video that tires should be rotated as with any other vehicle. This is incorrect. The imiev has two different size tires on the car. 145/65 R15's on the front, and 175/60 R15's on the back and should NOT be rotated.

    Warranty on Bianco's battery after 95k miles.

    I can see from your response that I was mistaken about what you said. You are saying that the problem was with the local service writer who was having "a bad day", but everything got resolved and Mitsubishi honored their warranty. I have taken a moment to amend my previous reply and soften my...

    Warranty on Bianco's battery after 95k miles.

    I read this post with great interest. I had a hard time understanding what I was reading, which is usually not the case for me. Usually I have very good comprehension. I detect a grammatical style that is a little unusual. If I were hearing your testimony instead of reading text, I assume you...

    What Other EV's Have You Driven?

    This was written in 2014 Since then: We added a second i-miev (but this one was an SE premium) Bought used (7500 miles) $6495 plus $500 shipping Then a third I-miev SE, which we didn't need so we turned around and sold it. Bought it for $2650 + tax sold for $5000 AND NOW! A 2017 Chevrolet...

    how many miles after a full charge ....

    Answering your question with the same answer as the previous reply, just saying the same thing in a slightly different way.... The Range remaining indicator is not telling you exactly how many miles you can travel, rather it is saying "This is the computer's best guess based upon the previous...

    How Well Does My Remaining Range Compare With Other Older Cars?

    My wife gets similar results on her 39,000 mile i-miev, but she readily admits that she's a putt-putter. She's very easy on the throttle and rarely exceeds 45mph. She never uses the interstate. When I drive the car I get on the interstate and drive 70-75 with the A/C on. After I've been in it...

    I have a 2012 ES that I plan to put up for sale soon. I have been busy trying to get a house ready to sell + 1001 other chores that are all pressing. My plan is to get it vacuumed out and take some pictures then post it for sale here, craislist and cargurus. I sold another one (SE) about 5...

    A new used owner

    Congratulations Evie, and welcome to the i-miev forum. You're post caught my eye because I recently sold my #3 i-miev that I didn't have a driver for. When I saw your post "A new used owner", my first thought was that you might be the one who bought my little E-V. But you're not him. We're...

    Trailer Hitch Installation

    I just bought one for one of my imiev’ s and it was delivered about three weeks ago but I haven’t installed it yet. Every weekend it’s been cold wet and yucky, so I’m procrastinating until better weather arrives.
