An Oklahoma company will assemble and sell all-electric, street-legal low-speed vehicles manufactured by an Atlanta-based company.
The agreement between AMP Control Inc. of Piedmont and Wheego Electric Cars is to be the focus of a news conference on Tuesday at the state Capitol.
Wheego CEO Mike McQuary says the tax credits approved by the Legislature during its most recent session makes Oklahoma an attractive marketplace in which to sell electric vehicles.
He says the Wheego Whip LSV qualifies for a state tax credit of 50 percent of the purchase price of the vehicle, which is $18,995, as well as a $7,500 federal tax credit.
The assembly plant will be in Piedmont in Canadian County, just northwest of Oklahoma City.
