Green Automotive Begins Final Testing Of All-Electric SUV For US Delivery

Green Automotive Company Corporation (OTC:GACR) announced today that Roush Industries has been retained to provide structural and vehicle engineering support as the Company begins the process of testing and confirming that its All-Electric SUV meets or exceeds all Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.

“Engineers from Roush have recently finished four days of initial inspections here in California, performing an engineering review of the All-Electric SUV,” said Fred Luke, President of Green Automotive. “We intend to stay on track toward meeting our goal of launching retail sales of the All-Electric SUV in the U.S. through a network of selected dealerships by the end of this year.”

Roush Industries ( www.roush.com) is a premier provider of automotive engineering and systems integration solutions, with over 2,500 employees in facilities around the world. The broad scope of engineering expertise at Roush, which includes areas such as advanced composites, body design and engineering, paint and trim services, fabrication and instrumentation, positions the Company to provide seamless support during the entire vehicle testing cycle.

According to the Company, the initial phase of work underway is currently divided into four steps. Step one involves an engineering review of vehicle construction with special attention paid to safety features to include airbags, seat belts and other safety design elements. Step two involves mapping the vehicle data against the required safety standards in the Roush homologation database. Step three entails vehicle testing, vehicle tear down and the processing of all data obtained for comparison to the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. Step four involves the compilation of a report that details the test findings and includes recommendations for any vehicle improvements. In the context of the automotive industry, homologation refers to the process of testing and confirming that a vehicle meets or exceeds all Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. All vehicles sold in the United States must go through this comprehensive process.
