Hybrid Technologies is a leader in the field of lithium battery powered products. The company is best known for their transformations of normal, street-legal, internal combustion vehicles into fully electric versions. The company has gained national and international media attention in print, on the radio, and even on television. Several celebrities such as George Clooney and James Blunt are enthusiastic drivers of Hybrid Technologies’ conversions.
Hybrid’s success can be attributed to many factors, but one is that they can take proven designs and convert them, instead of taking the time and high costs associated with creating a new vehicle. In their Mooresville, North Carolina facility, the motors and other systems are stripped out of the purchased vehicles and sold back to the automaker or others. At that point, employees install all of the necessary batteries and electrical components to make their hybrid vehicles travel without emissions.
One day soon, consumers will be able to walk into their local Walmart and purchase the Hybrid Technologies’ electric version of the Mini-Cooper, according to TreeHugger blogger Mr. Jacob Gordon. Their version is called Liv FLASH, and it offers the buyer up to 120 miles of travel on a 6-hour charge, 0-60 mpg in 9.0 seconds, and a potential lifespan of over 250,000 miles.
