VANCOUVER, British Columbia, April 08, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Westport Fuel Systems Inc. (“Westport Fuel Systems” or the “Company”) (TSX:WPRT / Nasdaq:WPRT) today announced that in response to the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic, it will host its upcoming Annual and Special Meeting of shareholders (the “Meeting”) in a virtual only format, at the same date and time as originally planned, being April 29, 2020 at 10:00 am Pacific Time.

The health and wellbeing of Westport Fuel Systems’ employees, service partners and shareholders is of utmost importance.
