Ford has asked to receive $5 billion in loans by 2011, but it was unclear how much money the automaker would receive. Nissan has applied for an undisclosed amount of assistance, while Tesla has sought $450 million. The Energy Department declined to comment on the plans. Chu has not yet announced the first recipients of the loans, which have been closely watched by members of Congress from states with auto plants and suppliers. Congress approved the loan program last year to help car companies and suppliers retool their facilities to develop green vehicles and components such as advanced batteries. The loans were designed to help the auto manufacturers meet new fuel-efficiency standards of at least 56 kilometers per gallon by 2020, a 40 per cent increase over current standards.Online loans commented:
I hope Ford, Nissan and Tesala will use this loan amount for better fuel efficient vehicle production which give relaxation and comfort to public and economy too.
