Mitsubishi is set to reveal a new version of its electric i MiEV Sport concept at the Geneva Motor Show in March.

The vehicle will preview the sporty 2+2 due in 2011. As with the ò€˜iò€™ supermini, it will be built at Mitsubishiò€™s expanded electric car factory in Japan, set to open in 2011. It can produce 20,000 models per year.

Mitsubishi has shown a 2+2 i MiEV Sport concept before, at the 2007 Tokyo Auto Salon. That had four-wheel drive and 430Nm of torque, and did 124 miles on a charge. The second-generation version is likely to get a new look and production-ready technologies including lithium-ion batteries sourced from Mitsubishiò€™s joint venture with electronics giant GS Yuasa.
