UQM enters bus market in Taiwan

LONGMONT — UQM Technologies Inc. (NYSE American: UQM), which manufactures motors for electric vehicles, has entered the Taiwan bus market.

The company received an order for its PowerPhase DT system from the Chung Thing Group, which will evaluate the system. UQM says the system, used for full-size buses, allows for greater speed and torque range than other systems, allowing smaller motors to power large vehicles.

“Working with a world class company such as the Chung Shing Group and our entry into the Taiwan market is another significant step in the global expansion and growth of UQM,” UQM CEO Joseph Mitchell said in a prepared statement. “We continue to bring on world class customers into the UQM portfolio and this is a testament to the quality of our products and our excellent team representing us around the world. We definitely look forward to supporting the Chung Shing Group and their expansion into the EV market.”

UQM announced in March that it was entering India’s electric-vehicle market.
