San Jose, Los Gatos, Campbell and Mill Valley Get 50 Electric Vehicles
Green vehicles added to municipal fleets –
Four Bay Area communities will have all-electric Mitsubishi i-MiEV hatchbacks for three years to augment their municipal fleets. San Jose received 38 i-MiEVs on Thursday, June 27 and the remaining 12 will be delivered to Campbell, Los Gatos and Mill Valley in early July.
Mitsubishi Motors North America supplied the vehicles. Mike Albert Fleet Solutions, a national fleet management and services provider, developed the favorable leasing terms. Active International, a corporate trading and marketing solutions provider, funded the leases. Bay Area Climate Collaborative (BACC), a public-private initiative of the Silicon Valley Leadership Group and the Mayors of San Francisco, San Jose and Oakland, validated the Bay Area market for Active International, facilitated key business relationships in support of the deal and coordinated with the public agencies to help finalize agreements.
The Lithium-ion battery powered Mitsubishi i-MiEVs have a range of 62 miles per charge.
