Hybrid Technologies Inc. (HYBR.OB) Weekly Recap 8/29/08
Hybrid Technologies Inc. (HYBR.OB) Showcases Their NEW Supercar to Popular Mechanics Friday, August 29th, 2008
Recently, Hybrid Technologies gave Popular Mechanics a sneak peak at the company’s new high-performance supercar. The much anticipated debut of this car, the Liv INIZIO, has been made at the Mooresville, NC manufacturing and R&D facility. Hybrid Technologies is a fully-electric vehicle manufacturer that is trying to change the landscape of the automotive industry. In addition to cleaning the environment through the use of emissions-free vehicles, they also have their eyes on winning the Automotive X Prize.
Hybrid Technologies’ contender for this prize will be very similar to their supercar, the Liv INIZIO, which is a two-door, race-inspired sports car that can go from 0 to 60mph in 4.0 seconds. This car will be the base for the model that will be used to compete for the X-Prize. It is capable of reaching speeds of 160 mph and can travel up to 160 miles on a single charge. The car will be modified into a hybrid vehicle that will need to accomplish at least 220 mpg.
Engineers on the project describe the car as far superior to both a Corvette and a Prius in their respective areas of specialization. When asked if the X Prize car would hit the 600+ horsepower level, Ron Cerven, a project engineer, laughed and replied that Popular Mechanics was “way out of the ballpark—it’s gonna be wild.” A full scale test model of the car will not be available until late 2009 or the first half of 2010, but the automotive community is eager to see the final results of this ferocious driving machine.
Hybrid Technologies Inc. (HYBR.OB) Products To Be Available at Local Wal-Mart Stores Tuesday, August 26th, 2008
Hybrid Technologies is a leader in the field of lithium battery powered products. The company is best known for their transformations of normal, street-legal, internal combustion vehicles into fully electric versions. The company has gained national and international media attention in print, on the radio, and even on television. Several celebrities such as George Clooney and James Blunt are enthusiastic drivers of Hybrid Technologies’ conversions.
Hybrid’s success can be attributed to many factors, but one is that they can take proven designs and convert them, instead of taking the time and high costs associated with creating a new vehicle. In their Mooresville, North Carolina facility, the motors and other systems are stripped out of the purchased vehicles and sold back to the automaker or others. At that point, employees install all of the necessary batteries and electrical components to make their hybrid vehicles travel without emissions.
One day soon, consumers will be able to walk into their local Walmart and purchase the Hybrid Technologies’ electric version of the Mini-Cooper, according to TreeHugger blogger Mr. Jacob Gordon. Their version is called Liv FLASH, and it offers the buyer up to 120 miles of travel on a 6-hour charge, 0-60 mpg in 9.0 seconds, and a potential lifespan of over 250,000 miles.
