Ronn Motor Co. Begins Research and Development Program to Study More Efficient Use of Ethanol and Hydrogen Blended Fuels in Scorpion™ HybridDate Posted: October 1, 2008 Austin, TX—Ronn Motor Company (PINKSHEETS: RNNM) announced October 1 it would begin a research and development program to study the more efficient use of ethanol and hydrogen blended fuels, including improved fuel mapping. Ronn Maxwell, CEO, stated, "We will use electronic controls to vary the air/fuel mixture to optimize the efficiency in the process." Ronn Motor Company's eco-exotic hybrid, the Scorpion™, is the first production automobile to produce Hydrogen on Demand (HOD) through its proprietary H2GO™ system. This car will be ethanol compliant and engineered to burn 70% gasoline or ethanol and approximately 30% hydrogen, thereby lowering fuel costs and greatly reducing emissions. While hydrogen and ethanol have traditionally been used separately, the combination of these two alternative fuels gives consumers more choices and reduces dependence on foreign oil. Ethanol is produced from renewable sources like corn and sugar cane. Brazil has successfully transitioned its economy from a traditional petroleum based infrastructure to ethanol, giving this country world recognition as a leader in alternative fuel adoption. Most of the large automotive manufacturers offer ethanol-approved vehicles. As ethanol becomes readily available and more widely accepted, it will be available at most retail service stations. COO Damon Kuhn added, "Ronn Motor Company is dedicated to alternative fuel strategies to help lower our dependence on foreign oil and we want to give our customers access to these solutions. "To the best of our knowledge, no other automobile manufacturer is working on the possible combination of these processes." For more information, call 972-378-7917. Ethanol
