The president of Mitsubishi Motors, Osamu Masuko, has announced that the firm will produce 2,000 i MiEV electric cars in 2009. This is not only the first time that the vehicle volume has been confirmed, but it also means the car will be launched in Japan almost a year earlier than previously publicly stated.

Masuko also notes in his statement that Mitsubishi intends to build 4,000 units of the car in 2010 with mass production to follow this. No production facility has been named. The i MiEV is closely based on the three-year old i minicar. That model is made at the OEM's Okazaki plant.
