[Symbolic Technology]
MMC’s special and specific technologies which leads
the whole automotive industry.
[Technologies for future generation ]
Unique Key technologies as features of Clean Diesel Engine
Mitsubishi Motors. TC-SST
[Backbone technologies] Bi-fuel compatibility
Backbone technologies as a
automotive manufacture enrolling High efficiency engine
at the reading group . [multi valve, direct injection, etc]
High-efficiency transmissions
Three-top-shelf performances
Excellent Emission performance
Zero emission while driving. No exhaust gas, No CO2.
If you would count the CO2 to make the electrical power at thermal power station, it might be 70%
less than that of petrol powered “ i ”.
Excellent low running cost
Approx.1/3 cost[*] against petrol engine powered “i”.
If utilize midnight charge only, it become 1/8[*].
[*] Note: Japanese market prices are used for the cost calculation.
Excellent smooth driving
Free from vertical vibration associated with petrol engine.
Not only running quietly but also strong acceleration by high torque of motor.
