20 /PRNewswire/ — Convergence 2008 - Booth #119 — Buehler Motor, Inc., a leading international provider of mechatronic drive and pump solutions with a specialty in the automotive industry, has announced it has finalized contracts with General Motors to provide customized auxiliary water pumps for the Chevrolet Volt Extended-Range Electric Vehicle and some GM hybrid vehicles.

The Chevrolet Volt being developed by General Motors delivers up to 40 miles of gasoline- and emissions-free electric driving, with the extended-range capability of hundreds of additional miles. Drawing upon GM’s experience inaugurating the modern electric vehicle market with the launch of the EV1 in 1996, the Volt uses a gas engine generator to create additional electricity to extend its range hundreds of miles until the vehicle can be plugged in and battery-charged.

The much-anticipated production version of the Volt was unveiled last month, with production expected to begin in late 2010. Under terms of the contracts, Buehler Motor will provide custom 12W and 50W auxiliary water pumps for the Volt and GM hybrid vehicles. Other details were not released. The two companies have been working together in a technology partnership since mid-2007 to customize the water pump technology necessary to circulate coolant through the Volt’s subsystems.

“Customers will be surprised by the ‘big’ features of the Aveo5 – big room, big style, big refinement and, of course, big fuel economy,” said Ed Peper, Chevrolet general manager. Speaking of fuel economy, the Aveo5 is estimated to go 26 miles on a gallon of gas in the city, and get 34 mpg on the highway with the 5-speed manual transmission. That translates into an average of more than 400 miles between fill-ups. Distributed by Internet Broadcasting.
