A while ago commented on the web about the possible variation of Mitsubishi i-MiEV for PSA ( Peugeot / Citroen ). Well still no concrete information of it, but it was a very interesting recreation, we could say would be like with the grill and optical Peugeot .
Recreation prepared by Auto Express shows how this could become a model under the name of Leon. All you guys did Auto Express is to incorporate another grid, optical and logo at the same i-MiEV , where I do not particularly like the way I am.
This like the Japanese version will have a 64 hp electric motor driving the rear wheels, and some batteries Lithium-Ion Battery . Mechanics, and everything related to it will also be Mitsubishi , the only thing PSA will incorporate the design of each model, and a new interior.
One thing I did not finish close is the name that you might have, 008 , and I think would be in the segment of the 1007 (model failed), and as a consequence his name should be 1008 . But well, that we should be later when more evidence of the signing of its new model.
The strategy of having this model in its range, will give PSA more time to develop its own hybrid and electric models.
