Production Of All-electric Vehicles Scheduled To Begin In Fourth Quarter Of 2014
TUNICA, Miss., Oct. 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — GreenTech Automotive (GTA), a U.S. automotive manufacturer dedicated to developing and producing environmentally friendly, energy-efficient vehicles, today celebrated the grand opening of its new production facility in Tunica, Mississippi.
“We started GreenTech Automotive with the vision to make energy-efficient cars that are so inexpensive the average American could afford to buy them,” said Charles Wang, chairman and CEO of GTA. “In the past five years we have completely redesigned and reengineered the all-electric MyCar; developed strategic relationships with major automotive OEMs; and attracted, trained and retained a dedicated workforce in Mississippi. Completing this state-of-the-art facility, designed and built specifically for GTA’s unique production needs, brings us another step closer to making that dream a reality.”
Gilbert Villarreal, chief operating officer of GTA, provided an update on the company’s operations. “The transition from our pilot manufacturing facility in Horn Lake is nearly complete,” Villarreal said. “Production equipment will be installed and operational this month, which keeps us on schedule to begin production of the 2015 MyCar next month. We’re looking forward to job fairs in November and coming months that will help us reach staffing capacity, and will continue to sign dealers and distributors as we look forward to a productive 2015.”
The facility, located at One GreenTech Drive, Robinsonville, MS, 38664, at a site selected by GTA in 2009, initially will produce MyCar, a two-seat Neighborhood Electric Vehicle (NEV) that produces zero emissions, provides segment-leading range per charge and can be recharged via a common 110V AC wall outlet or a 220V AC wall outlet. GTA is moving equipment from its pilot manufacturing facility in Horn Lake, and expects to begin vehicle production there in the fourth quarter of 2014.

Original Article: TESLARATI.COM
Yes, Saleen is working on a Model S but no one knows much more than that, until now.
Teslarati had the good fortune to be invited to Saleen’s Tesla Model S track test and tune session with Steve Saleen himself. What we saw went far beyond our expectations.
Forum comments run the gamut, from a fully rebuilt Tesla Model S, much as Saleen cars are, to a tweaking of suspensions and tires. How can a renowned performance car magician improve an award-winning battery powered sedan? We won’t go into the full details yet, but suffice it to say, there’s laser scanning involved, exotic materials and the Bilstein touch just to name a few.
The result will be a transformation of the Model S sedan to a track-ready beast of an electric vehicle (EV). Saleen will truly delight anyone who wants even more performance from their Tesla Model S without giving up everyday driveability.
Saleen is doing what it does best – look at everything, answer every food group and make it astronomically better. When asked about the switch from gasoline internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles to an all electric Tesla Model S, the Saleen team was quick to point out that all modern cars are controlled by electronics whether it’s an EV or not.
We can only guess that Saleen might be looking to work its tuning magic on Tesla’s electronic componentry. Afterall, an electric motor and its three moving parts are infinitely easier to work on than an opposing piston engine. Or is it? Will the Saleen R&D Engineering team led by Sven Etzelsberger be able to extract even more performance out of Tesla’s P85 443 ft·lb (600 N·m) electric motor? Only time will tell.
Saleen Tesla Model S Track Testing
The Saleen Tesla Model S exemplified how much more it can give at full speed negotiating corners under the expert hands of Steve Saleen. We sat shotgun with Steve as he showed us the untapped performance of a Saleen unleashed Tesla Model S.
“The result will be a transformation of the Model S sedan to a track-ready beast of an electric vehicle (EV)”
Steve pushed the Model S through a series of decreasing radius and 90-degree turns, sweepers, and fast medium length straights all while maintaining the car’s natural finesse. The Saleen Model S reveals the sedan’s hidden personality; a neutral, very well balanced chassis under stress, that is not vicious, even when pushed to the outer bounds of physics.
We test drove the Saleen Tesla Model S on the track and also played chase with it in our very own Teslarati 48 race car, and can say the differences were astounding. The electric Saleen was fast. It cornered fast, pushed strong and the braking was radically different. It’s safe to say the Saleen Model S will be true to both of its DNAs, well engineered and race ready.
We can only say we are on pins and needles waiting for the final version of the Saleen Tesla Model S to be made public. It will reveal how far the Model S engineered platform can be pushed and we think it will surprise many. In the meantime we’re counting our lucky stars for having caught a glimpse of this incredible moment in EV history, when Saleen turned his attention to electric cars.
