LAS VEGAS, Sept. 29, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Michael Hu, President of 2050 Motors, Inc. (OTCQB:ETFM), announced today that during this last quarter 2050 Motors has decided to shift strategy to immediate preparation for Phase II of its business plan. Under Phase II, US workers will assemble electric vehicles in Las Vegas, Nevada with high-tech parts manufactured and imported from Aoxin Automobile in China including advanced carbon fiber bodies and high strength aluminum alloy frames as well as other high-quality US manufactured components.
This would benefit Aoxin Automobile and 2050 Motors in entering the US EV market as soon as possible. 2050 Motors intends to assemble and sell the e-Go EV as a low-speed neighborhood electric vehicle while the Company is completing the crash test sequence and complying with other US standards for the e-Go EV as a highway-capable vehicle. Please see the four-minute video illustrating the successful frontal crash test of the e-Go and additionally the amazing impact durability testing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WeCpds1J9TE
Mr. Hu comments: “In 2016, 2050 Motors unveiled its four-passenger all-carbon-fiber body electric vehicle in Las Vegas. The e-Go carbon fiber body is five times stronger than steel and extremely lightweight, allowing it to be half the weight of competing electric automobiles which translates to significantly higher safety and energy efficiency. The high-quality carbon fiber body parts of the e-Go are manufactured by a patented low-cost process in minutes instead of hours. Aoxin Automobile is supporting 2050 Motors’ Phase II strategy by providing all their game-changing components from the new, upgraded Yancheng Plant at very competitive prices. This will allow 2050 Motors to offer e-Go all-electric passenger vehicles at affordable prices approximately $10,000 below our competitors, a significant advantage in the mid-range electric car market which has grown exponentially in the last 2-3 years.”
Mr. Hu further commented: “The world has recently been given a wake-up call by an unprecedented series of never before seen sequence of hurricanes, indicating that climate change events are here to stay. World leaders are reacting by eliminating internal combustion engine automobiles and replacing them with electric and hybrid vehicles. See as an example the following articles”:
The LA Times article titled “China is banning traditional auto engines. Its aim: electric car domination” (http://www.latimes.com/business/autos/la-fi-hy-china-vehicles-20170911-story.html) (September 12, 2017) stated, “Britain and France each vowed to implement such a ban by 2040.” This is also followed by many countries around the world including India and Norway.
And recently Bloomberg reported, “California Considers Following China With Combustion-Engine Car Ban” (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-09-26/california-mulls-following-china-with-combustion-engine-car-ban) (September 26, 2016).
Mr. Hu further stated: “The automakers finally got the message also. See as an example the following article:”
The CNN Money article titled "Mercedes is spending $1 billion to go electric in Alabama" (http://money.cnn.com/2017/09/22/news/economy/mercedes-alabama-billion-investment-jobs/index.html) (September 22, 2017).
In conclusion, Mr. Hu stated that, although 2050 Motors still faces challenges, we believe we are ahead of the game with a completed automobile plant ready to produce parts to build the only all-electric carbon fiber body vehicle in the world at reasonable consumer prices.
