Zap Alias will revive Detroit Electric brand
Filed under: EV/Plug-in, Zap, Green Daily
No, that's not a new photo of the upcoming Zap Alias. Instead, it's a photo to show what Zap and Youngman's partnership will bring back from the dead: Detroit Electric.
Zap and the Chinese company China Youngman Automotive Group announced today that Detroit Electric, the 100-year-old electric car brand, will be the name applied to the two company's joint venture, which they say will be "bringing new vehicle technologies to market by 2009." They mean the buses (announced recently) will be here in 2009, not necessarily the Zap Alias, although both will carry the Detroit Electric name. Where will Zap locate the revived Detroit Electric offices? In California, naturally.
