So, does anyone know where it finished? I tried Google, but the only hits I get are for the press releases that Mitsu was going to race it in the Shikoku EV Rally. So... did it do that bad that they wouldn't post how they placed?

Probably the only electric car I could actually be comfortable driving. Performance might be a bit low now, but who's saying that this vehicle is done with it's shake-down testing and ready for production?
Anyway, the comments about this car "saving" Mitsubishi are pretty dumb. You do realize that Mitsu is one of the largest companies in Japan and that their US market is truely pocket change to them, right? Couple that with low gas prices in the US (compared to most of Europe and Asia) and all the hell they would face trying to get that thing street legal (big chance for a Class D fire with those batteries in a crash) and you are left with a relatively low ambition for Mitsu to make that car available to the US market. As cool as it would be, I just can't see it happening for quite some time. Sadly we're a nation of hippies that would cut off our nose to spite our face.

I think some of you are missing the point... Max torque @ 0 RPM makes for a rectangular dyno plot. An electric motor in each wheel allows the possibility of real time digitally controlled traction at each footprint.

not to mention there is no torque curve. just a straight light of consistant torque. thats something i'd like to play around with.
