• We have two ways of transporting these products – one way is fuel efficient car that uses fossil fuels and the other runs on alternative fuels.

• Alternative fuels – Modec Electric Van• Fossil Fuels – Honda Fit

The Products

charge and has a carrying capacity of two tons.• It is powered by twin 288-volt sodium-nickel-chloride batteries which are

partially replenished by the van’s regenerative breaking system. • The Modec starts at $41,100 and comes in several different looks.• It is 98% recyclable.• The Modec has a very low maintenance because the engine only has three

moving parts.• It has zero emissions, zero noise, zero congestion charges, zero road tax

and zero operator license requirements.

Modec Electric Van

• This car would be used to transport the smaller types of electronics.

• The Honda Fit has a super efficient engine that produces low emissions -117-hp, 16-valve i-VTEC®, 4-cylinder engine

• It was on the top ten list of most fuel efficient cars in 2009.

• It has full regenerative braking which means that the battery receives charge every time you decelerate.

• It gets from 0-60 mph in less than 4 seconds. The top speed is limited to 130 mph.

• It is about 10x cheaper than a regular gas powered car.• The Lightning GT cost $120,000 but you could easily make that money

back over the years
