It doesn’t take much to have the biggest electric vehicle fleet in Canada. In fact, if you can get 51 EVs together, you win. The aspiring record-holder is Mitsubishi Motor Sales of Canada, which is about to bring “up to 50″ i-MiEV all-electric cars to the Boucherville suburb of Montreal. Mitsubishi is partnering with Hydro-Québec to bring the EVs to the city in what the automaker is calling the, “largest Canadian project ever fielded to integrate, test, and evaluate all-electric vehicles on urban streets under real-world conditions.” More information on who will be involved when were not released, but we can assume this will be a longish trial, since Mitsubishi is saying that the cars will be tested “in both fall and winter urban conditions.” More details in this PDF.
