In parallel to the unveiling of its sporty Colt CZC coupé-cabriolet and Concept-X, the 76th Geneva Motor Show is also hosting the world premiere of Concept-EZ MIEV.This is the first (concept) car to fully exploit the virtues of it’s innovative drivetrain, offering maximum interior space to passengers and/or cargo, within the overall dimensions of a compact car.

The architectural flexibility of the exterior finds it’s reflection in the interior, which can be ‘switched’ into three different modes.Driving Mode, Transport Mode and Lounge Mode. The latter one envelopes the occupants into a liberating yet cocooned club-like atmosphere.

MIEV stands for Mitsubishi In-wheel motor Electric Vehicle. The drive system has a major impact on car design since it does without requiring transmissions, drive shafts, differential gears or other complex and heavy components. Or a bulky traditional engine for that matter. The space-saving benefits offer exciting possibilities in terms of architecture and innovative exteriors.
