Yes, dear. That's all part of the drivetrain. But anyway, the Colt EV,
with in-wheel motors, is 200kg heavier (1150kg) than the equivalent
diesel (960kg).

According to:
http://www.mitsubishi-cars.co.uk/colt/specifications.asp?strCar1=ME7
the Diesel is 1050Kg. So there appears to be only 100Kg difference
between the two, which is quite impressive considering this was done
taking a production car built for an ICE rather than building the car up
around the electric drive system, which would allow you to engineer it
to a lower weight.

But the iEV only has a target range of 160 km so it has been weight reduced
by fitting a small battery.

I want one, how much, when?
