Vision Industries raises over $1 million from convertible bond sale

California hybrid truck maker settles deal with European investment fund

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., Nov. 24 - Vision Industries Corp. said it completed two rounds of convertible bond financings with a major European investment fund. It raised more than $1 million.

The financing was negotiated by Christian Kolster of C&M Capital Ab, Vision's European financial advisor.

"Over the last few years, European investors have demonstrated a strong desire to invest in alternative energy companies," Vision's chief executive and president, Martin Schuermann, said in a press release. "The availability of capital, coupled with government mandates and incentives, have helped countries such as Germany to become the world leader in solar and wind energy production."

The company is an El Segundo, Calif., developer and manufacturer of advanced zero emission hydrogen fuel cell hybrid electric commercial heavy-duty trucks.
