mia, the perfect electric vehicle designed for local journeys

The mia is conceived to simplify local, urban and

suburban driving. It is a common-sense car, offering
range of innovative transport solutions to make dail
life easier. Ultra-compact, virtually silent, economica
absolute zero-emissions at point of use, and with a
range of 74 miles, the mia is ideal for taking the kids
school, commuting, shopping or heading off for fami
leisure pursuits at the weekend.

A pioneering concept in the electric vehicle market,

dynamic mia turns more heads than a Lamborghini.

Ultra compact: 2.87 m
Measuring just 2.87 m (9’ 5”) in length, the mia C offers unrivalled manoeuvrability in traffic. Nipping
in and out of narrow streets, its tight turning circle makes it ideal for constricted spaces while
parking problems become a thing of the past.

Generously roomy: 3 seats with a central driving position

Uniquely, the mia C‘s three-seater configuration places the driver centrally in the front, with the two
passengers seated behind. They have outstanding leg room, without sacrificing the 260 litres of
usable luggage space. Passengers enjoy an unobstructed view of the road, not blocked by head
restraints in front of them, ensuring that all the car‘s occupants have an uncluttered and airy driving
experience.

By being centrally positioned, the driver has a panoramic view, especially useful for manoeuvring in
city streets or country lanes. The configuration allows for two large storage trays to the right and left
of the driver. Ideal for keys, mobile phone, mp3 player, handbag, and everything else you pick up on
the way! The central driving position also means an extra safety plus, as the driver can always get
out safely onto the pavement side of the road.

Ultra accessible with sliding doors

The sliding doors on both sides ensure convenient access, particularly in car parks with very narrow
spaces. The floor and the roof are specially designed to make it easier to get in and out.
This unique layout also avoids the need for contortions when installing children in a child’s safety
seat, an advantage parents are bound to appreciate.

So simple and yet so quiet

Mia is easy to drive. You simply turn the key, press the direction of travel selector and away you go.
There is no gearbox. Just depress the accelerator and mia takes off in impressive silence.

end-of-life vehicle recycling. Everything is engineered
to minimise mia’s carbon footprint, to ensure that, rather
than just an illusion of progress, mia is the symbol of
a real promise to reconcile personal transport with
sustainability.

mia was designed, developed and optimised as a pure

electric vehicle, unlike combustion engine products
converted to electric traction. With its sights set on
light weight (850 Kg including the battery) mia is both
economical and eco-responsible.
For the same range, the on-board power is half that
needed to drive a 1,200 kg vehicle which results in
shorter charging times for mia, reflected in lower costs
for electricity.
