Setting the Stage for Change
“There is nothing wrong with change, if it is in the right
direction.”
-Winston Churchill
By the Numbers – U.S. Stats
• 17+ Million Autogas Vehicles World Wide
– Less Than 2% in United States (~290,000)
– United States is the world’s 2nd largest car market
By the Numbers – Oil Stats
• Q2 - 2011 US Oil Imports – April ~344 Million Barrels / $42.5 billion ($1.42 billion per day)
– May ~362 Million Barrels / $41.7 billion (62% of Consumption)
– June ~343 Million Barrels / $39.0 billion ($902,878 per minute)

By The Numbers – U.S. / China
Analyzing the World’s Largest Vehicle Markets:
Country Population Vehicles
China: 1.3 billion 85 million
Unites States: 310 million 254 million
Cars Per Citizen:
China: 0.07 or ~ 1 to 14.2
United States: 0.82 or ~ 1 to 1.2
If China’s automotive adoption were ever to equal that of the U.S., they’d have more
than one billion (1,000,000,000) automobiles registered
