Green Automotive Continues Testing of All-Electric SUV for U.S. Delivery

Roush Industries Continues Vehicle Testing to Qualify All-Electric SUV for Year-end U.S. Sales Launch

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Green Automotive Company Corporation (OTC:GACR) is in the process of testing and confirming that its All-Electric SUV meets or exceeds all Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. In this respect, the Company announced today that Roush Industries is now proceeding with further testing of the Green Automotive All-Electric SUV, which includes mapping vehicle data acquired in various tests (including crash tests) against the required safety standards contained in the Roush homologation database. All vehicles sold in the United States must go through this comprehensive testing process to confirm that they meet or exceed all Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards; this process is known in the automotive industry as vehicle “homologation.”

“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.”

In late February, Roush Industries conducted an extensive vehicle assessment and evaluation of the Green Automotive All-Electric SUV. This initial assessment involved an engineering review of vehicle construction with special attention paid to safety features to include airbags, seat belts and other safety design elements.

To support ongoing vehicle testing and evaluation, the Company has shipped two (2) All-Electric SUVs to Detroit where Roush Industries will supervise a 20 MPH FMVSS 214 Oblique Side Impact Test and also conduct a post test vehicle teardown and evaluation in mid May. Representatives from Green Automotive and the vehicle manufacturer along with experts from supplemental restraint suppliers will be present to observe the test and participate in follow-up meetings to discuss the results and supplemental restraint system integration plans.

"We are excited to move forward with Roush on this next step of vehicle testing," 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."
