AEVA Forums

Hi Laura Having driven my imiev for nearly a year I have found little difference in range with the different modes. C is min regen.D is medium regen. B is max regenerative braking. I don,t use D at all-find it a bit boring like driving an auto. However I am rarely in peak hour traffic where it might...

Just awesome - Great work guys!

I thought it ended brilliantly. Crashes get a lot more media coverage and this one was spectacular and well timed for greatest effect with the two leading drivers on the last lap. More people will tune in next race to see what happens between the two drivers next time. Noone was hurt and it was a g...

Hi guys Sounds like the iMiev will be a perfect fit for your situation! Personally only know of ev's as far as the Barossa and Tailem Bend -not quite the 260km from Adelaide you are. However, others may know more. Your property sounds fantastic - love to stop in one day. Now ......with a top up at N...

Hi MatW Missed your post last week as all things "Perth" are a bit far from home! The Adelaide branch of AEVA have had some dealings with Agostino Mits -not sure if that's where you have purchased from. We also meet on the 3rd Wed night of the month http://www.aevasa.kestar.com.au/ so if you are abl...

There is a Nissan Exa conversion just been finished in Adelaide. The white one in the front of the 1st photo here http://forums.aeva.asn.au/viewtopic.php?title=science-alive-adelaide-august-2014&t=4255 Reported to be running very well at last night's local meeting. Have emailed the owner the link to...

Last weekend's AEVA stand at Science Alive in Adelaide (all 3 days) 2 iMiev's 1 Volt 5 conversions (2 daily drivers, 2 sports cars and 1 station wagon) 1 treecycle (electric motor) http://www.theleadsouthaustralia.com.au/lifestyle/treecycles-filling-a-niche-in-the-transport-ecosystem/ 1 converted po...

I was just thinking as in winter its dark when I do my trip but in summer I only need the lights for the last few km if at all. Also In summer I don't need the fan on low blowing fresh air onto the windscreen to keep it clear. winter this is a must. (going to measure it tomorrow) Kurt Ha, Ha - just...

Thanks,         when - if my stock one breaks. I will use that as a replacement. Kurt I have my name on the waiting list for a local version of the variable amp one - hopefully thru testing /compliance by the end of the year. I would like it primarily to charge more quickly at caravan parks etc to ...

Congratulations!
Lovely wedding pics and cake but .....where's a pic of the ev wedding cars???

Well last night I fully charged from 2 bars to full. Outside temp 9 degrees and went down to 7 degrees later in the night. It was a cold, wet and windy night. The 2 bars had started flashing at 18kmRR and I got home at 17kmRR and plugged in straightaway. So just under the 22%SOC> The pack took 14.11...

Correlation between SoC and bars when descharging is not my fiding. I saw it in myimiev.com. Maybe a little diference on turtle only. Yes, I saw that too on mymiev.com and can confirm it appears to be correct for my car. I don't have canion but the Fast Charger at Mitsubishi shows SOC % continuousl...

are you able to populate your info on the above spreadsheet?
Thanks."

Have filled in some boxes!

Quote:"on another note. I read your comment earlier on in this thread regarding low ambient temp and a drop in range. I am seeing slightly lower range now it's colder up to 5% less than over summer." Yes also reduced range happening in Adelaide. Last Sat I only did 105km before the flashing last 2 b...

Well that's a long and very enlightening read. Thanks for posting the link.

"So in summary what are the changes in the builds again? If you are looking for a decent MY12 there is a black ex demo still for sale in SA with only 2600km on it and nearly 4 years warranty left. .. Update: Been advised the black imiev was sold today. Wonder if anyone we know will turn up with it ...

Edit; Double post

"So in summary what are the changes in the builds again? In addition to all listed above: Major differences in the 2 models (MY10 vs MY12) for me were 2 vs 6 airbags , MY10 only charges at 13.5 amps (quicker but limits your emergency options), MY12 charges at 9.8 amps so with an adaptor can use a GP...

[quote="g4qber"] not ALL are being shipped to Perth.
Confirmed Craig that there are 60 nationwide.
there are currently 30 left to be alocated east.
10 have been sold.

Any idea how many of those left are the MY12 model????

So a 2010 with 25kms for $18k a reasonable price?? Maybe some haggle room? Yep haggle all you can - some factors that might help are: length of remaining warranty?, stamp duty and rego costs, imiev floor mats included?, tyre wear at 25oookm?,and whether it needs to be upgraded for public charging c...

"I live in Hazelbrook, which is only 675 metres and 16kms closer to Sydney than Katoomba" You'll be fine with that , Brenda. I often travel a similar climb,600m, to the Adelaide hills with my Imiev and always am able to go further than I expect. The down hill trip is basically a free ride. The Green...

Could show you the Fast Charger at Mitsubishi in action with my imiev. South of the city too.

Or Eric could borrow it for the day to show you around town in an EV - seats 4 incl driver!

There is an Electric Transport Museum out north but I'm pretty sure it's all trams.

"Regarding changing the path on that range App. Instead of typing in a start and end address. Just type in the starting address then zoom in on the map use the mouse to click on the roads to create a path along the roads you want to take to the end address" Yep, that's what I do -just click on the m...

"Who quoted that $8,000, was it Mitsubishi Australia and is that confirmed" It was at the time of my imiev purchase last Dec -I think the battery pack was $7k -8 ish and then some hours for fitting. (may have been 8.5k fitted) Of course with a heavy proviso that there is no guarantee of future prici...
