    Plug-in hybrid conversion specialist ALTe Powertrain Technologies says that it has inked a deal with vehicle wholesaler Manheim to transform fleet trucks and vans into plug-in hybrid vehicles. Atlanta-based Manheim, which operates out of 145 locations in 19 countries on five continents, will install ALTe's conversion kits. These kits boast the ability to enable vehicles to go up to 30 miles under battery power.
