Mitsubishi vs volt

Mitsubishi is ready to release their electric car in the U.S. at $47,000. I remember when GM stated that the Volt would be approximately $40,000 and everyone was critical of the price to be too high and would not sell. Will the Mitsubishi be too much also?

I haven't heard about this one. The iMiEV?


Looks interesting, but there's no gas motor to charge the batteries for longer distances. I think I'd rather have a Smart car if I'm going that small. Funny thing is about these electrics, after this cap and trade stuff gets going it may cost more to charge the batteries than it does now to fill the gas tank.

The Volt looks like a real car. This... not so much.
