Vision Industries Corp.: Vision Industries Corp. to Begin Performance and Efficiency Testing of Its Zero Emission Tyrano(TM) Tr
LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - March 4, 2009) - Vision Industries Corp. (
Martin Schuermann, President and CEO of Vision stated, "We are excited to see the Tyrano moving under its own power. This is a huge milestone in our mission to provide the world's 1st commercially viable, zero emission electric/hydrogen heavy duty class 8 tractor truck. This truck has been designed to replace short haul diesel trucks in the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. A single Tyrano truck operating out of the ports will reduce annual CO2 emissions by up to 274 tons. This amount equals the annual CO2 emissions produced by 63 cars."
