Source London and Mitsubishi
Mitsubishi Motors, the makers of the i-MiEV have pledged their support for Source London, it comes as no surprise as Mitsubishi is trying to make its new Electric Vehicle (EV) more practical and appeal to more people in the city.
Source London is Boris Johnson’s scheme to introduce electric charging points across London. The scheme is being deployed in conjunction with Transport For London (TFL) and the plan is to roll out 1,300 public charging points by the year 2013. The Mayor of London, Boris Johnson wants London to become the electric vehicle capital of Europe.
Mitsubishi Motors in the UK’s Director of Sales & Marketing, Toby Marshall said: “Mitsubishi Motors in the UK support the Mayor of London and Transport for London in the fight to reduce CO2 emissions. Electric vehicles such as the Mitsubishi i-MiEV are now an affordable, viable mode of transport and with infrastructure provided by schemes like Source London, implementing a strategic network of charging points, means that electric vehicles are at last becoming a reality. Such schemes will help eliminate ‘range anxiety’ by giving electric vehicle owners the confidence that they will never be far from a charging point in London.”
Mitsubishi have been supporting electric charging point installations around the world. The i-MiEV was launched in Japan in 2009, it was the first pure Electric Vehicle available to world markets in regular series production. Customers can purchase a Mitsubishi i-MiEV from one of 13 national Mitsubishi EV Sales Centres across the UK, including the Mitsubishi dealer in London.
