Mitsubishi Green Car Allowed on Australian Roads
Posted on April 8, 2009, under Latest News and Trends.
Greenpeace supporters rejoice! Actually this should include all of the people who complain about the “noxious fumes” and superimposed “pollutants” wandering about in the air. According to news reports, it has been confirmed that an electric car developed by Mitsubishi Motors has been cleared to appear on australian roads. The car has passed a series of safety and emission tests that totalled to a cool 83. And the federal government has decided that its safe for this car to run on Australian roads.
Although the car has not been officially named, let’s called it the Electric Mitsu for now. Anyway, so the possible appearance of the Electric Mitsu in Australia has given some people a great cause for being happy and generally pleased with the world. Why? Well this is the first completely electric car developed, and it has the potential of zero- emissions which is a great thing for all of us. As it stands, Australian urban centres are the hubs that house most of our population. With the advent of cars such as the Electric Mitsu, it can significantly decrease the carbon footprint we are responsible for.
The Electric Mitsu can be charged completely by a household electric charge. It can go a maximum distance of 160 km, and at full charge the little car runs at a maximum speed of 130 kmph. With these figures, the car seems ideal for cities where on the whole, most people drive less than 100 km a day. so each day, if you have charged the Electric Mitsu properly, you can drive around and not add to any sort of pollution since the engine is designed so as to emit the least bit of noise. The Electric Mitsu is taking no chances. The odds for the success of the car depend very strongly upon how environment friendly the car ultimate ends up being.
Cars such as this go a long way in pushing the way for a zero-emission Australian commuting system, although the mileage of the car does little for outback dwellers, it is a city car and as it will serve beautifully. I suppose car finance shall be easy to take on this one as it is pegged at $30,000. A bit steep yes, but considering it is a zero-emission car, it might just notch up points for you at the vehicle finance agency and speed your car loan application that much faster. wjat are waiting for then?
Start exploring your options for car loans, and if your car credit has been suffering of late, this is the perfect time to remedy it by floating a bad car credit loan or even asking your boss to help out by getting you a chattel mortgage plan. All up to you!
