Crosspoint Kinetics Taps Steve Cooney to Lead Hybrid Sales
Crosspoint Kinetics, maker of the Kinetics Hybrid system, has announced the appointment of Steve Cooney to lead the company’s sales initiatives.
Cooney’s new post will have him working directly with public transit agencies and private fleet managers as well as vehicle manufacturers and their dealers.
“I’m excited to join the Crosspoint Kinetics team and share their passion for reducing America’s impact on global warming, emissions, and consumption of foreign oil,”said Cooney. “The fleet managers I’ve met so far have been exceptionally innovative, looking for unique ways to economically green their fleets. I look forward to meeting and learning from many more in the months ahead.”
Prior to joining Crosspoint Kinetics, Cooney was Midwest regional sales manager at Snap-Tite, where he increased government sales by 52%. He began his career and worked for a decade at Navistar International.
The Kinetics Hybrid is already used on nearly 200 class 3-7 buses and light trucks across North American to boost their fuel efficiency by up to 30% and reduce their harmful emissions by a similar amount. The “bolt-on” electric system connects to the drive train and uses high-tech ultracapacitors to capture the braking energy typically lost to heat. The hybrid then reuses that energy to propel the vehicle during launch, when fuel efficiency is typically at its lowest point.
