There are 15 vehicles here and they will be used to help the ESB plan the implementation of their recharging infrastructure.

The i-MiEV itself compares well against its petrol and diesel counterparts with the specifications an comfort levels very similar. Bluetooth, ABS, Aircon, and iso-fix for child seat safety are all available.
The main advantage will be the zero tailpipe emissions!
The top speed will be 130klms with an overnight charge time of 7 hours. There is a quick charge which will give an 80% fill in 30 minutes.
