Documentary of the Year?!

After almost 3 years of intense filming, the documentary chronicling creating the eVaro, FVT's journey through the X Prize and the unique business that resulted is ready for release. This two hour film is as intense as it is  entertaining. It will air January 6th, 2011 at 5:00 pm  and 9:00 pm PST on Discovery Channel Canada.  We previewed a portion of the show and without question it will be exciting to watch. I was on the edge of my seat - and I knew how it ended! Discovery was so impressed with this production they are using it as their season opener.

Pre-screening party? You bet!

 
A big pre-screening party downtown is planned before the show airs. We will send out an open invitation for those who would like to join us. Because our investors played such a big part in helping us succeed they will have first choice of seats. There will be plenty of space left, so stay tuned. 

Tickets will be $1000 each as we need to raise  cash to pay for all the plastic surgery needed to continue our acting careers.

Out with the grey

and in with the green.

Revenue Road

 
It took some time for the team to recover from the X Prize competition so the shop was a little quiet for while. For the past 4 years FVT has been intensely focused on developing game-changing technologies and a remarkable vehicle. I remember last December several of us put in over 300 hours in the month.  Our efforts have produced one of the world's most remarkable and efficient vehicles along with some of the best electric vehicle technology on the planet. It is refreshing to know we are now heading down a new path for the company called "Revenue Road".

We already  have  contracts  in place  for  design  and  engineering  services along with several orders for our batteries and battery management system.  We have developed a very special set of technologies and abilities and now have the opportunity to share them with customers  around the world bringing more electric vehicles to market.  This is a very exciting time for our investors and the FVT Team.

We now have a total of 4 potential manufacturers for the eVaro. This is a very interesting time for the automotive industry. More and more companies are taking advantage of new technologies, lean manufacturing and strategic partnerships to bring EV's to the market in new and creative ways.

Stay tuned for many more announcements as they come to fruition.

Sincerely,


Todd and the FVT boys
