CODA Automotive Inc. is a privately held American company headquartered in Los Angeles, California, that designs, semi manufactures lithium-iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery systems built for automotive and power storage utility applications. Initially sold electric cars.〔 Miles Automotive partnered with Hafei and Qingyuan Electric Vehicle to establish Coda Automotive as an affiliate company. The name CODA comes from the musical term for the concluding passage of a piece of music. CODA Automotive has said that it chose the name because its electric vehicle technology represents an end for combustion engine vehicles, and the start of the electric vehicle era. In June 2009, CODA announced the creation and funding of LIO Energy Systems, a global joint-venture with Lishen Power Battery. LIO Energy Systems was formed with the purpose of designing, manufacturing, and selling battery systems for electric vehicles and utility applications. LIO Energy Systems will supply battery systems to CODA Automotive for use in the all-electric CODA, to other automotive OEMs globally, and to renewable energy producers, utilities and other power storage customers. LIO Energy Systems was later renamed CODA Energy.〔(About CODA Energy )〕 CODA’s sole vehicle offering was the Coda all-electric sedan, a four-door, five passenger electric car powered by a battery pack that delivered a United States Environmental Protection Agency rated range of , the longest among its class, although considerably less than the Tesla Roadster and Tesla Model S. The electric car was released in March 2012,〔 and initially was available only in California.〔 After low initial sales of the Coda Car, Coda Automotive terminated 15% of its workforce,〔(Coda Automotive undergoes "massive layoffs" )〕 and entered a period of financial difficulty.〔(Low Battery: Coda On Last Leg, Future Unknown )〕〔(Coda Furloughs Workers in New Wave of Cost Cuts )〕 As of May 2013, Coda was seeking bankruptcy protection. ==Corporate strategy and partners==
CODA Automotive’s goal is to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles, and renewable energy technology globally. To this end, CODA has focused on improving performance, safety, reducing cost, and commercializing production of battery systems built for automotive applications, which it views as the “chief enabling technology” for all-electric cars. To reduce the cost of building its vehicles, CODA controls all core design, and engineering work internally while partnering with established automotive manufacturers, and suppliers around the world. CODA’s supply chain partners include BorgWarner, UQM Technologies, EnergyCS, Continental Automotive Systems, Porsche Design Studios, Delphi, Celgard, Novolyte Technologies, OMITEC, Lear, Hella, Hafei, and Lishen. In total, CODA has more than thirty suppliers, and partners on four continents.〔 〕 In March 2012, Chinese car maker Great Wall Motors formed a joint venture with Coda.
