Electric Motor Werks Visits Yahoo and Genentech with Successful Electric Conversion Roadshow
EMotorWerks announced successful completion of 3 public events, another national magazine publication, launch of 2 new products, and completion of their second prototype, EMotorWerks-2.
Palo Alto, CA, January 19, 2012 --(PR.com)-- On January 10, 2012, EMotorWerks visited Genentech main campus in South San Francisco with its exclusive electric conversion roadshow. The event was sponsored by Green Genes - Genentech public organization which unites 1400 company employees who are interested in green technology, sustainability and socially responsible business practices.
The show was a great success. New electric EMotorWerks-1 prototype was displayed at a prime spot - the main square in front of headquarters. A few hundred spectators stopped by during lunch and at least a few dozen stayed for more than half an hour.
EMotorWerks Founder Dr. Valery Miftakhov took the microphone to give a small introduction of the company and did not have a chance to put it back down for almost an hour. Genentech employees continuously bombarded Dr. Miftakhov with questions. Valery stayed on stage talking about electric conversion, the car parameters, benefits of converting to electric, and EMotorWerks plans for the future. VP of R&D, Henry Grishashvili, presented new Android based EV dashboard.
On January 8th, Valery Miftakhov presented EMotorWerks and its BMW 3-series converted prototype at Golden Gate Electric Vehicle Association (GGEVA) meeting in San Francisco. GGEVA, founded in 2004, is a chapter of the Electric Auto Association, founded in 1967. It is an all-volunteer, not-for-profit educational, support, and advocacy group that promotes electric vehicles (http://www.ggeva.org/GGEVA/About.html)
About 40 people showed up for a Saturday event, including influential local EV proponents (executives from national organization Plug-in America, president of SF EAA chapter, and executives from local EV companies). Overall, attendees were impressed with EMotorWerks prototype bimmer performance (0-60 in ~5.5s), range (100 miles), and looks – both exterior and under the hood.
For those electric car conversion enthusiasts who want to learn more about what EMotorWerks keeps under the hood of its prototype – the January 2012 issue of the national Electric Auto Association publication “Current Events” featured a 4-page long technical article “Electric Motor Werks: EMotorWerks 3 series Road Shows and a 10kW Charging System” (pages 12-15). This is the fourth article on EMotorWerks in this informative and widely respected publication. Over the last few months, the company has earned its reputation of “the company most likely to finally develop a successful mass conversion solution,” says Chairman of EAA, Ron Freund.
On December 8th, EMotorWerks could be seen with the electric BMW roadshow at Yahoo headquarters in Sunnyvale, CA. 200-300 people stopped by to learn about electric conversion and EMotorWerks on the way to and from lunch at the central cafeteria.
In 2012, EMotorWerks will continue visiting the largest and the greenest SF Bay Area companies with a road show and outdoor displays of our BMW EV conversions. Please contact Julia Sirotina at julias@emotorwerks.com if you would like us to visit your company or if you have great ideas on potential destinations.
Two new EV component products were introduced during past month from EMotorWerks . EV conversion enthusiasts can now buy the first releases of fully built units of EMotorWerks SmartCharge-10000, a 10kW EV charger (previously offered only as a kit), and EMotorWerks EV Dashboard, an Android-based system that monitors, controls, and displays status of all the EV components in the converted car. Initial market response indicates very strong demand from both individual converters and EV conversion companies.
EMotorWerks is at the final stage of completing its second 3-series prototype, EMotorWerks-2. The design elements have been evolved based on experience with EMotorWerks-1 over the last few months. This milestone brings EMotorWerks very close to the first limited public release of its conversion solutions later this quarter. The first lucky 10 people from EMotorWerks waiting list will soon be able to enjoy their now-clean, reborn 3-series.
Stay tuned for upcoming announcements.
