evMe: An in-depth look
By Derek Fung on 22 May 2009
From both the outside and inside, there's little to distinguish the petrol slurping Mazda 2 from Energetique's electric evMe. So we took a look underneath its skin to see what makes it hum.
Don't forget to check out our in-depth preview-cum-review of the evMe.
evMe or Mazda 2?
Externally there's not much to differentiate the donor Mazda 2 from the electrified evMe. In this pic — although not on the car we drove — all the Mazda badges are replaced with the Greek letter omega, which is the symbol for the base unit of electrical resistance, the ohm. On the rump there's an evMe sticker, an absent tailpipe and, umm, that's about it.
