HOWELL, N.J., Jan. 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- On December 18, 2019, Greenland Technologies Holding Corporation (Nasdaq: GTEC) ("Greenland") and Goog Intelligent Machinery Changxing Co., Ltd. ("Goog"), a technology service and product provider in China, entered into a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU"). Under the terms of the MOU, Greenland or its affiliates will acquire up to 75% ownership of Goog. Greenland will pay Goog's shareholders their original paid-in capital with cash and a 20% premium with newly issued shares of Greenland. Greenland will conduct due diligence on Goog regarding its financials, operating results, technology, and intellectual property. The transaction is subject to the approval by the Boards of Directors of Greenland and Goog.

Goog has been developing the AMT (Automated Manual Transmission) technology, created a few working prototypes with the AMT technology, and tested them on buses and heavy-duty trucks. AMT is an automated gearbox system, which enables the decision to perform a gearshift and the actuation of clutch/gears to be done by computer. Compared to the manual transmission system, vehicles equipped with the AMT technology provide superior user experience, as AMT improves the safety and stability of the vehicle, enables the vehicle to be more fuel-efficient, and minimizes negative effects of driver fatigue.

Mr. Peter Zuguang Wang, the Chairman of Greenland, remarked, "Through this acquisition, Greenland will be able to add the automated manual transmission technology and know-hows to its existing transmission lines, providing quality products with the updated technology to its customers at competitive prices."
