ZAP Segues to New Electric Transport

SANTA ROSA, Calif., Oct. 22, 2003 -- Advanced transportation pioneer ZAP (BULLETIN BOARD: ZAPZ) unveiled its latest vehicle today, the ZAP(R) Q Electric Transport.

Step onto the riding platform and you feel like a 21st Century Gladiator riding your chariot into the "Brave New World" of urban transportation. The ZAP Q looks and performs like other two and three-wheeled stand-on transporters and scooters in its class, but with more features and handling for less than half the price of some models.

You ride the ZAP Q in a standing position with your feet placed side-by-side. Grip the handlebars, engage the throttle, and off you go! The silence and maneuverability will surprise you. Two wheel-motors on the front drive the vehicle while another two smaller rear wheels provide steering and stability. Rechargeable batteries power the ZAP Q up to 10 mph. Other features include adjustable handlebars, headlight, turn signals, running lights, variable speed throttle, voltage and speed gauges, LED display panel, keyed ignition and more.
