We haven't heard much from ZENN recently, but the electric car company announced yesterday that ZENN will be offering warranty services through 4CS. It looks like vehicles and parts will be covered through 4CS' iWarranty and iParts services. If you're ready for a way-too-busy website design, you can check out the 4CS homepage for more information. I've pasted the 4CS press release after the jump, as there's a bit of technical mumbo-jumbo (e.g., the phrase "focused portal") and I'll let the truly interested parse it for themselves. For most of us, the important thing to know is that ZENN's one-year warranty for their low-speed electric vehicles is now being operated by 4CS. That's all. Carry on.
