CHICAGO, May 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. (MMNA) has teamed up with one of America's leading confectionaries, the Jelly Belly Candy Company, in a novel promotion to show Chicagoans the sweeter side of sustainable transportation.
Dressed in brightly-colored custom Jelly Belly graphics, four Mitsubishi i vehicles (along with a pair of Mitsubishi Outlander crossovers) will be meandering the streets of the Windy City on Monday May 23 and Tuesday May 24 to mark the opening of the 2011 Sweets & Snacks Expo, the premier trade show of the candy industry showcasing nearly 500 companies and over 15,000 confectionary and snack industry professionals from around the world.
While the Sweets and Snacks Expo is not open to the public, anyone spotting one of the Jelly Belly/Mitsubishi cars will have the opportunity to learn more about these vehicles – and score some tasty Jelly Belly treats.
The all-new Mitsubishi i will be available for test drives at Mitsubishi dealers beginning this November offering a starting MSRP of $27,990 (before Federal or State incentive) that hopes to make EV ownership more attainable.
