Mr. Peterson is a lightweight automotive expert with experience from Pontiac, CPC Advanced Vehicle Engineering, Daimler Chrysler SRT, and Lotus Engineering. He holds 14 patents and authored over 50 technical papers which documented a 30 % lighter Lotus vehicle and assisted in defining the US 2025 fuel economy standards. His presentation will discuss major shifts in the automotive industry and review a detailed lightweight design. We look forward to an interactive meeting with questions that will challenge our participants.
