    Default Washignton Post article about Mitsubishi MiEV

    A couple of articles in the Washington Post by their car guy, Warren Brown. GM game him a Volt loaner last year and he loved it (so did his wife, who wanted to keep it!)

    Interesting articles. He's a little confused by kW vs. kWh but he gets the practical bits. Mostly he understands that BEVs are niche vehicles but the niche is large.

    Here is his Volt review: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...T2011021102950

    I sat in an i-MiEV this weekend. The Th!nk has more room for a tall person in the front. i-MiEV does not have an adjustable steering wheel, and because of the space in the back seats, the front seats don't go back that far. The Volt is MUCH more comfortable.
