In an earlier statement, Koebler, a graduate of the University of Berkeley himself, stated, "I'm excited to consult with Hybrid Technologies as they are on the forefront of developing production-model, consumer-driven Lithium-ion vehicles. Lithium-ion technology is ready today to implement into passenger vehicles that reach ranges of 100 - 200 miles. I've worked with Lithium packs extensively and was among the first engineers to prove Lithium-ion packs can propel vehicles. I'm looking forward to accelerating the availability of Hybrid products to the consumer market and making a change happen to reduce our dependence on oil." Also visit: http://www.solarmotions.com
