The Seat Mii electric car is a new version of the vehicle from the Spain-based automotive brand that is targeted at urban drivers to help them ditch gas-burning alternatives in favor of a more eco-friendly option. Positioned as the brand's first all-electric vehicle, the car has a top speed of 80.7mph and features a 36.8kWh Li-ion battery pack that will provide up to 161.5 miles of range per charge. The vehicle will also be compatible for a 40 kW fast charger that will power the battery up to 80% capacity in an hour.
Luca de Meo from Seat spoke on the new Seat Mii electric car saying that, "The market is changing, and electrification is expanding at an unprecedented rate. In Europe, the electric vehicle market grew by 46 percent in the first 4 months of the year, moving forward we expect electrified vehicles to play an important role within our range. The Mii electric is the start of that journey, and at the same time brings to the market an affordable electric car."
