The Mitsubishi i-MiEV was the company’s historic entrance into the electric vehicle market and was unveiled on World Environment Day in 2009. It was a compact all electric EV designed to drive the shift toward mass produced electric vehicles. The i-MiEV has a 16-kWh battery pack and a 3.3 kWh acceptance rate (how fast the battery can accept power). As such level 1 or level 2 EV chargers work well with this vehicle. If you don’t plan on upgrading your EV any time soon, then a level 1 NEMA 5-15 (regular residential plug) will work well. If you plan on upgrading your EV in the future, a level 2 NEMA 40 amp 14-50 or NEMA 6-50 TOTALEV Mitsubishi EV charger will charge this car at its fastest charge rate and will also provide a much faster charger for your next plug-in or pure electric vehicle.
