Publisher Thomas L. duPont announced today his pick for the esteemed ‘Publisher’s Choice’ of the duPont REGISTRY A Buyers Gallery of Fine Automobiles. The August issue, on newsstands July 18, will feature the ‘Scorpion’ from Ronn Motors - a new generation of “green cars” that delivers ultimate performance, styling and efficiency with on-demand hydrogen production.
“When deciding on the ‘Publisher’s Choice’ vehicle, we often look for a car that symbolizes where the luxury and exotic market is headed,” says Tom duPont, Founder and Publisher of the duPont REGISTRY™. “The ‘Scorpion’ provides environmentally-conscious consumers with a car that has the stand out design and performance of an exotic car, but keeps carbon footprints at a minimum.”
The innovative hydrogen delivery system produces hydrogen on demand and in real time, which will be inducted through the air intake manifold and blended with gasoline at a ratio of 30-40 percent hydrogen. Using this technology in the ‘Scorpion’, it has the potential to reach 40 mpg plus in efficiency.
The August issue marks the ‘Scorpions’ induction into the prestigious duPont REGISTRY A Buyers Gallery of Fine Automobiles® ‘Publisher’s Choice’.
Based in Horseshoe Bay, Texas, CEO of Ronn Motors Company, Ronn Maxwell is dedicated to bringing the luxury and exotic market sleek designs, with modern Earth-friendly concepts. Available to buyers this Fall, the ‘Scorpion’ is priced from $150,000.
“As a company our mission is to bring the green vehicle to the next level,” says Maxwell. “By demonstrating the capabilities of hydrogen and maintaining the striking lines of the ‘Scorpion,’ our team at Ronn Motors did just that, confirmed by our recognition from a leading publication like duPont REGISTRY™”.
