CT&T To Build Electric e-Zone Cars In Hawaii
CT&T, the leading South Korean electric car manufacturer, has announced plans to bring an electric vehicle Regional Assembly and Sales Facility to the State of Hawaii in the near future. The facility will have an annual capacity of 10,000 2-seater electric vehicles. The facility is also expected to assemble electric buses and 4-passenger electric vehicles.
The new facility will assemble CT&T’s highly acclaimed e-Zone car which was exhibited in September 2009 at the G-20 Summit, held in Pittsburgh, PA. Other states including California, South Carolina and Pennsylvania have indicated their interest in the e-Zone electric vehicles.
The new plant will not only increase local employment but will give the e-Zone a price advantage over its competitors whose vehicles require extra freight fees and taxes. CT&T also hope to gain points with Hawaiian car buyers with the fact that the “Made in Hawaii” e-Zone vehicles are manufactured by fellow Hawaiians.
CT&T’s new eco-friendly assembly facility will have a showroom, an electric vehicle theme park, and a resort. The facility will be designed and constructed by Stan Field, together with, Young Se Kim, of INNO Design.
