DALLAS--March 16, 2011: Green Automotive Company Corporation announced today that AutoPacific, Inc. has recently completed an in-depth U.S. market review and analysis for Green Automotive.

“In addition to the forecasts by Baum & Associates and market research provided to us by AutoPacific, other independent automotive industry analysts predict that by 2015 the global electric vehicle market will reach 2.6 million units”

Serving as an independent automotive industry research firm, it has developed an extremely comprehensive automotive database which provides the company with information ranging from consumer preferences to automotive vehicle comparisons. AutoPacific, recognized as an authority on the future state of the industry, assists its clients in finding the answers they need to stay competitive.

"It is advantageous that we gain as much insight into the U.S. market segment related to electric vehicles as we can. Green Automotive needs to know where the industry is today, where it's going to be in the future and what consumers of electric vehicles consider important. AutoPacific's market research gives Green Auto important consumer information, which is vital to us just like it is for Chevrolet's Volt, for Nissan's Leaf, and for Tesla's Roadster, as we are each early entrants into this new Electric Vehicle market space. We need to know who our prospective EV car buyers are, and most importantly, what they expect in an Electric Vehicle," observed Ben Rainwater, Consultant to Green Automotive.

"We were impressed with the scope and quality of the research, the results of which were presented to Green Auto's management by George Peterson, AutoPacific's President and his team of industry experts. It is easy to understand why AutoPacific is so highly regarded in the industry. Because of their extensive experience and market expertise, I am confident we will continue to use their services in the future," stated Steve Wells, VP Product Development.

Recently, President Obama announced a goal to get one million electric vehicles on the road by 2015. AutoPacific's quarterly Alternative Fuel Forecast agrees that the government estimates are directionally correct. AutoPacific's research further indicates that vehicles with characteristics like Green Automotive's SUV EV and MPV EV will appeal to U.S. consumers from a number of different important perspectives and have the potential to be a significant part of the projected Electric Vehicle sales volume.

"In addition to the forecasts by Baum & Associates and market research provided to us by AutoPacific, other independent automotive industry analysts predict that by 2015 the global electric vehicle market will reach 2.6 million units," said Fred Luke, Green Automotive's President, "and the U.S. is expected to account for half, or more, of that market. As technological breakthroughs continue, I expect to see decreasing battery size and increasing efficiency, resulting in reduced electric vehicle costs. All of this equates to increasing acceptance of electric vehicles across mass markets, including our target buyers who are environmentally conscious, technology savvy, socially aware, early adopters."
