Richard Griffiths, Director of Development for Hybrid Technologies stated, "We chose Warner Music Group's Lyor Cohen to be one of our first recipients of a Smart Car because he is someone who represents a new generation of leaders working to address climate change. Under Lyor's leadership, Warner Music Group's U.S. record labels have lead the industry in their environmentally responsible efforts. Lyor has always been on the cutting edge; therefore, we are proud he is one of the first to have our cars."

Commenting on driving Hybrid Technology's Smart Car, Cohen said, "It's one thing to talk about the environment, it's another to incorporate ecologically friendly behavior in your everyday lives. I'm proud that Warner Music has led the industry in going green, from greening our company events to transforming our CD and DVD packaging as well as strengthening our company's recycling efforts. We're proud to work with Richard and the Smart Car team and look forward to encouraging more and more people to drive smart."
