According to a written statement from Green Automotive, these discussions will lead to Liberty technology being used to convert conventional internal combustion engine driven vehicles into zero emission electric vehicles.
Liberty, formed in 2006, was the first company in the world to successfully convert the Range Rover into a high speed pure electric 4x4 capable of 200 miles on a single charge and driven by 4 individual motors.
The Liberty Electric Range Rover was hailed as the world's best luxury EV in 2010 and provided the most telling example of the company's capabilities.
Green Automotive said Liberty's expertise will serve as the foundation for its expansion into the European electric vehicle market as well as provide the technology for the conversion activities planned for the North American market.
"As I disclosed in several of our past public announcements, and in greater detail in our First Quarter March 31, 2012 Information and Disclosure Statement filed with OTCMarkets.com", said Fred Luke, President of Green Automotive Company, "we have elected to not make the Company's primary business that of importing, performing the homologation, and then competing against a host of others now entering the market of retailing Electric Passenger Vehicles.
"Putting the last 2 years of import and homologation knowledge in the proper prospective, it is clear to us that our fastest and least expensive path to revenues from the Electric Vehicle (EV) will be to focus on the conversion of conventional internal combustion engine-driven vehicles of all types, particularly Mass-Transit and passenger vehicles which have already passed the US Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) tests, to make them into zero emission vehicles," he said.
