| Miles Electric
Vehicles is a manufacturer and distributor of all electric
vehicles and was founded by entrepreneur/philanthropist Miles
Rubin , with a mission to change the world one car at a time.
Based in Los Angeles, California,
the company is privately held by Miles Rubin. The company
gained prominence in 2005 when it began sales of the ZX40
electric vehicle, the first street-legal Chinese-made electric
automobile sold in the United States. Miles Electric Vehicles,
built on steel unibody chassis, are the world's first crash
tested NEVs to achieve DoT, CARB and NHTSA compliance. The
company was recently given the "Electric Car Company of 2007"
award by Good Clean Tech.
MILES current line-up of
electric vehicles include the ZX40S small SUV, the ZX40S
Advanced Design small SUV, and the ZX40ST work truck. MILES
low speed, all electric vehicles produce zero tailpipe
emissions and deliver strikingly low operating costs, making
them a great fit for greening fleets nationwide.
The all electric MILES XS500
sedan, which is currently under development, will top 80mph
and travel over 120 miles on a single charge for about the
cost of a gallon of gas.
