Altech-Eco Receives EPA Certification for 2010 Ford Fusion Bi-Fueled and Dedicated CNG Conversion System in US

May 10, 2010 | USA, Asheville NC

EPA Certificates of Conformity received for Ford Fusion

Altech-Eco Corporation of Asheville, North Carolina has obtained Certificates of Conformity (COC) from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for their 2010 Ford Fusion passenger sedan CNG conversion system. This Fusion can operate entirely on natural gas (mono-fuel), or operate on either compressed natural gas or gasoline (bi-fuel) by pressing a dashboard button to instantly switch the fuels, with a driving range over 700 miles on a single fill-up.

The Certificates approve up to twenty vehicles conversions of each type; thereafter a new certificate is required. Buyers of the mono-fuel version can qualify for a $4,000 Federal Tax Credit, upon purchase.

“Every Federal, State and local municipality needs to save money on fuel, along with the business community, and the Ford Fusion powered by CNG is the perfect solution for them, so we’re proud to be the first to have received the EPA Bi-Fuel conversion system certification for one of the best driving automobiles in the world”, said Miles George, VP of Altech-Eco.

Altech-Eco provides a lifetime warranty on all conversion system emissions components, available at select participating Ford dealerships and approved aftermarket conversion facilities.

In addition to the 2010 Fusion CNG conversion EPA certifications, Altech-Eco has also received EPA certifications this year for the Ford Transit Connect, the Ford F-250 and F-350, the Mercury Milan, and the Ford Focus. These are all 2010 models, making Altech-Eco one of the most received 2010 natural gas conversion system EPA certifications, worldwide.
