High capacity batteries

EV batteries must have high energy density, and the i MiEV utilises high energy density lithium-ion batteries. A module consists of 4 cells, and 22 modules make one battery pack. Thanks to the structure of the modules, which allows them to be installed in either a vertical or transverse position, each high-capacity battery pack can fit under the floor. With these batteries installed, the target range is 100 miles (driving pattern: Japan 10-15 mode).
