PHOENIX, July 12, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Alpine 4 Technologies Ltd. (OTCQB: ALPP), a technology and manufacturing holding company announced today that its subsidiary ALTIA has successfully concluded its 90 day pilot with Phoenix, AZ-based Earnhardt Auto Centers of its innovative 6th Sense Auto product platform. The pilot program was installed at the Earnhardt Chevrolet dealership in Chandler, AZ and performed well above expectations and will continue on in the store for the foreseeable future. ALTIA is also in negotiations with several other large automotive groups regarding its 6th Sense Auto and BrakeActive aftermarket products and anticipates larger orders in late Q3 and Q4 2017.
6th Sense Auto is designed for the modern "connected car" and dedicated to helping large dealerships like Earnhardt improve their inventory management, engine diagnostics, service maintenance and personalized customer support through wireless, cloud-based software.
Charlie Winters, Chairman of the Board and Alpine 4's Automotive Advisor had this to say: "The pilot program did not disappoint. Our 6th Sense Auto product concluded with a 53% sell through rate in June on retail deals to the Earnhardt Chevrolet customer base and is expected to generate a steady stream of recurrent revenue for ALTIA and should expand when more dealership groups are signed on."
With roughly 40 million new and used cars sold in the United States annually, ALTIA's market opportunity is very large and we believe that our 6th Sense Auto product is positioned to be a dominant player in this industry, noted Kent B. Wilson CEO of Alpine 4 Technologies.
