With
its primary business objective being commercialization
of the Full Terrain Vehicle (FTV™), Torvec
has developed a steady stream of products and
technologies which optimized the performance of
this unique vehicle. These technologies are independently
commercially viable. Led by the revolutionary
Infinitely Variable Transmission (IVT™),
which provides a comprehensive solution to the
nagging problems of poor fuel economy and harmful
emissions, the component technologies of the FTV™
underscore the pioneering nature of the Company's
greatest asset: ground-breaking automotive innovation.
Springing
from the development process of the FTV™
are several proprietary products which, standing
alone or taken as a "bundled automotive technology,"
put Torvec at the forefront of breakthrough problem
solving. The Iso-Torque™ differential and
the Steer-Drive combine to make the FTV™
a uniquely versatile vehicle with a myriad of
commercial and public sector applications.
Vernon
Gleasman's 70+ years of paradigm shifting automotive
innovation has culminated in the development and
design of the FTV™, a unique tracked vehicle
whose engineering leapfrogs conventional thinking.
Torvec is both the beneficiary and the repository
of this genius, and the Company's bright future
is buttressed by the underpinning of technology
and innovation present in Torvec today. |
