SmallCap Sentinel: Energy, Automobiles and a Fuel Efficient New Transmission


IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 17, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- "The rising cost of oil and gas has been an exceptional motivator in the automotive industry as proven by the advent of hybrid automobiles," stated SmallCap Sentinel analyst D.R. Clark. "But it doesn't stop there. Efficiencies are not confined simply to hybrid fuel use but are also imperative to decreasing the need for fuel with mechanical ingenuity."

"For example, this morning's release by Ikona Gear International, Inc. (OTCBB:IKGI), in which they announced the development of a fuel-efficient transmission, should be of interest to leading automobile manufacturers like Toyota Motor Corp. (NYSE:TM), and a spate of others looking for solutions to current energy issues," Clark added.
