Jerry Chellini, an Amp Electrical Engineer, gave training sessions this week to Blue Ash, Sharonville, and Sycamore Fire Departments to introduce them to our Amp Electrical Vehicles. This instruction allows them to set safety procedures when approaching an electric vehicle in an emergency situation. We are very thankful for the dedicated service that these Area Firefighters provide our community.

The Amp 100% Electric Saturn Sky Racer successfully completed the "Knockout" stage of the Progressive Insurance Automotive X PRIZE Competition. This was held at the Michigan International Speedway from 6/22/10 until 6/29/10. There were many very demanding and rigorous testing trials, including the following: Technical Inspections, On Road Efficiency (90 miles at 45 MPH without recharging), On Road Range (68 miles at an average of 55 MPH without recharging), Emissions Testing, Dynamic Safety Testing (0 - 60 MPH in 18 seconds), Accident Avoidance Testing, and Lateral Acceleration Testing. Congratulations to the Amp Team! We now look forward to the "Finals" at MIS from July 19th to July 30th.
