The Pocket Friendly Retro Car – Mitsouka EV Himiko

[Surfer]

If you compare looks with money, then the Japanese auto maker, Mitsuoka Motors, has just the thing for you. The company has launched the EV Himiko, a retro-styled coupe that is based on the basic running chassis from a Mazda MX-5. The zero-emission vehicle is powered by lithium-ion batteries that according to the company are able to power the ride for a good 550km between charges.

Great going Mitsuoka motors but what about performance. People buying a car like would expect a power pack performance. How long would that last ?

And we used to think that only Chinese imitate the car designs? This seems to be a straight rip off from Morgan Roadster, but it was an interesting idea to bring back the retro feel in a modern and eco friendly avatar though.

MAN the design is so neat and proportionate. The body line is a classic and the alloys are aggressive combining giving that retro look. Would love to arrive to an evening dinner in this beauty at the porch of a 5star.
