Hybrids have a much bigger chance on the Chinese car market as they don’t need charging points. Chinese car buyers are getting more worried about the rise of petrol prices and are increasingly willing to pay more for a car with a better fuel consumption. The Chery E5 seems to arrive at the right moment.

  1. I have technology, with US and International Patents, when installed on a Internal Combustion Engine, doubles Mile Per Gallon, eliminates air pollution and increases the time between lubrication by a factor of 4. We can do this on any vehicle but we want to get the Chinese automaker, Chery, to have us use our magic so that their vehicles can be sold in America, by us using our technology to pass the EPA 2014 Regulations.
    I drive a Prius, started with 45 MPG combine, now is 70 MPG combine, that is a 60% increase while making almost no Air Pollution. So, what could I do with the Chery QQ or E5?
