Columbus and IVECO Move to Next Stage Trials

LAS VEGAS, March 3 -- Columbus Geographic Systems (GIS) Ltd. ("Columbus") (CGSE.PK) announced today that global commercial vehicle manufacturer, IVECO, has chosen to proceed to advanced trials with the Ranger navigation system.

This follows the announcement on January 18, 2008, that initial tests were underway. IVECO manufactures a broad range of light, medium and heavy commercial vehicles, buses, and off-road trucks, as well as special vehicles for fire fighting and off-road missions. Many of these vehicles operate primarily in off-road environments and Columbus' advanced system, Ranger, offers drivers an important GPS navigation tool.

"IVECO's initial tests confirm the potential value of Columbus' navigation system for drivers operating in cross-country and off-road environments," commented Columbus CEO Tsvika Freidman. He explained that the advanced trials will be carried out by IVECO's Electronics Division.

Freidman cautions that the process is far from complete. "While this is a very important milestone, this can be a very long process in the auto industry. We are very encouraged by these initial results and are confident about future progress with IVECO," he says. "We look forward to updating our shareholders on these developments."
