BLUE ASH, Ohio, Oct. 4, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AMP Holding Inc. (OTCBB:AMPD), a company engaged in the emission-free electrification of OEM vehicles, announced it will be attending and participating in the Detroit Ride-and-Drive event at the Business of Plugging In conference, taking place in Detroit, October 12-14.  

The Business of Plugging In conference is hosting an exclusive ride-and-drive event offering attendees the opportunity to get behind the wheel of several production and concept plug in electric vehicles (PEVs).  AMP's 100% electric GM Equinox will participate in the event, alongside the Nissan LEAF, Chevy Volt and other leading PEVs. A test track will be available alongside the Detroit River where the event is taking place.

"This year's conference is indeed timely, as this is the year PEVs will actually be hitting U.S. roads. AMP's technology has earned it a place at the conference alongside industry giants like Nissan and GM. This forum is an excellent facilitator of meaningful and relevant discussion on the future of the PEV market," said David E. Cole, chairman emeritus of the Center for Automotive Research.

The Business of Plugging In conference is an event with international appeal, as it is a unique forum that is focused on the growth of PEVs and the business models that will support their global introduction; the conference plays a critical role in developing the global PEV market. This conference leads intelligent and collaborative discussion on the current and future state of the industry; bringing automotive, utility and new technology thought leaders together with policy makers, financiers and researchers.
