Mitsubishi Partners with Singapore Government on Electric Vehicles

Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (MMC) and its distributor in Singapore Cycle & Carriage Automotive PTE Limited (CCA) today signed a Cooperation Agreement to collaborate on activities to popularize electric vehicles (EV) with the Singapore government.

The Economic Development Board (EDB) of Singapore, including Singapore’s Energy Market Authority (EMA) and Land Transport Authority (LTA), as part of a multi government agency EV task force will set up an EV charging infrastructure network and evaluate the cost benefits of EVs for future adoption.

Within these activities, MMC, via CCA, will supply 25 i-MiEVs from 2011 and cooperate in the taskforce’s test bedding efforts.

MMC is currently selling the i-MiEV in Japan, Hong Kong, and Australia. In addition, MMC has engaged in initiatives to popularize EVs with various governments all over the world, including the governments of the Principality of Monaco, Iceland, Denmark, among others.
