...into production of the first 5,000 to 10,000 cars in 2009 and ramp up to 100,000 by 2012. At least one major investor, Kosmo Technology Industrial Berhad, a Malaysian auto components maker, is on board. Kosmo has invested €2 million in Loremo, a big chunk of the €5 million Loremo has raised so far.

(Secretly I know that I let my Inbox fester with DVD requests and event reminders so that I can later spend a chunk of time on such a purging.) Alright, down to an even 100.
