NEWTEON will be on the starting line of the 8th edition of No Finish Line that will take place from November 17th to 25th 2007, all profits going to the association Children & Future.

The principle: to encourage as many people as possible to support action in aid of children who are sick or in difficulty, by completing in Monaco a 1200 metre circuit, either by running or walking on the main sea wall in Port Hercule. The course will be open for 24 hours for nine days and nine nights. The Children & Future Association has pledged to give 1 euro for each kilometre run to the cause.

NEWTEON attended Ecomobile, an exhibition dedicated to ecological vehicles during Lyon Automobile Tradeshow that took place from October 6th to 14th. The Electric Fiat Doblò aroused a lot of interest from public and private actors who were impressed by the performances of the vehicle.

The medias greeted its ecological (100% electric, carbon neutral) and technical (range of 150 km, speed of 120 km/h) performances. Several articles and TV news reported on NEWTEON's Electric Doblò, such as LCI and France 3, two national French TV channels.

Fiat new born was presented on October 4th at Transpotec in Milan: the Fiat Fiorino. For the first time in the automotive history, the electric version, developped by Micro-Vett, was launched simultaneously with the endothermic version!

Fiat Research Centre actually asked Micro-Vett to take charge of the electrification of the Fiorino range. Micro-Vett already realises the Electric Fiat Doblò, distributed by NEWTEON.

Newteon is extending to the west of France. E.L.E.V.E, which is a specialist in electric and hybrid vehicles has joined NEWTEON's network.
