March 10, 2014: The all-electric car, to be driven by Brian Orr of sustainability consultants EV Matters Ltd, is to take part in the World Advanced Vehicle Expedition (WAVE), which starts in Sindelfingen, Germany, on 31st May and ends at Rigi in Switzerland on 7th June. The event will see up to 70 teams taking in 20-plus towns and cities en route across Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
As well as being an entrant in its own right in the over-900kg class, the i-MiEV will also be providing support for a hand-built prototype ‘utility vehicle’ being developed for use in the Third World, which is being entered in the sub-900kg category by auto-engineering company Green MotorSport Ltd.
Brian, from Wokingham, said: ‘We’re doing this to promote green issues and sustainable issues. It’s a really worthy cause.’
