Electric Bicycles, Scooters 'ZAP' Mendocino, California; ZAP's New 'Mendo Wheels' Location Grand Opening October 31

MENDOCINO, Calif.--Oct. 2, 20058, 2005--Transportation pioneer ZAP (PCX:ZP) announced today the opening of a new outlet in Mendocino, California called Mendo Wheels, where residents and visitors to California's beautiful North Coast will now be able to rent and purchase the latest from ZAP's line of ecologically-friendly electric transportation.

ZAP, which stands for Zero Air Pollution, is opening Mendo Wheels to showcase its line of advanced technology vehicles. Located in the paradise of California's North Coast, residents now have access to clean transportation solutions that will keep their environment clean with quiet, zero-emission electric vehicles. And, visitors to Mendocino can also park their cars and rent a ZAP to go site seeing in the famous Village of Mendocino and beyond. For example, $15 can rent you a ZAP bike for an hour to explore the beautiful coastline of Mendocino.

ZAP has been able to add a special offer for those visiting Mendocino through a unique partnership with local realtor Steve Hale and nearby Pacific Mist Inn & Cabins to offer its customers a "Room with a Zoom." Guests at the Inn will be able to select a package deal that includes their choice of a ZAP vehicle with their overnight stay. For more information, visit www.pacificmistinn.com.

Both locals and tourists will be able to rent or buy from a wide selection of electric vehicles. Electric vehicles are not just good for the environment; they are also good for the pocket book because they help save money on gas. In addition to Mendo Wheels, the ZAP location even offers the Mendocino Garden Shop and shop manager Shawn Dawson is excited about the connection.

"It's a great synergy between oxygen making plants and zero-emission vehicles," said Dawson. "Plus, we have the biggest parking lot in town. What a better place for people to park their gas-guzzling polluters and try a new Zero Air Pollution ZAP vehicle. We believe that Mendo Wheels and Mendo Garden Shop will become a destination location for both locals and visitors to the Mendocino Coast."

Expect lots of different ZAP vehicles at the grand opening, as well as BBQ, music, prizes and more. The Grand Opening for Mendo Wheels will be on Halloween Day, October 31, 2005 with festivities beginning at 4:00 PM and concluding at 7:00 PM. Mendo Motors is located at 44720 Main Street, Mendocino, California 707-937-1132.
