NEW YORK - April 11, 2006: Hybrid Technologies, Inc. emerging leaders in the development and marketing of lithium-powered products worldwide, is pleased to announce that one of America's most popular morning TV shows featured the HT Lithium Smart car as part of its lineup of environmentally friendly vehicles. The non-emission compact motored on to the set driven by Regis Philbin in today's broadcast of LIVE with Regis and Kelly.

"It's wonderful to have our vehicle appear on a show," comments HT's Director of PR, Richard Griffiths. "That's been part of New York's morning for over the last two decades. New York is the fourth largest hybrid auto market in the country, a sector that could use a greater supply of state-of-the-art vehicles, and one that we hope will take the Lithium Smart car to its heart. New Yorkers are known as risk takers and innovators, a spirit that's reflected in the cutting edge technology Hybrid develops."

In the Hybrid universe, creative vision is a daily miracle and clean fuel next to the white of angel's wings. The company's products could be keeping their industry competitors up nights with their growing list of environmentally conscious electric-powered vehicles; from stealth motorcycles to lawnmowers, from watercraft to the snazzy LiX-75, the world's fastest hybrid sports car. They even install their zero-emission Lithium-powered energy system as part of off-the-grid lifestyle technologies in commercial and residential properties.

"Hybrid Technologies is proud to be a thought leader in the expanding Renaissance that is about to transform the auto industry on a global level," says Richard Griffiths. "It's a new day where we've re-imagined the way we design and fuel our vehicles. Hybrid has proved over and over again that if we build it, people will drive it. Right now it's a dream market, consumers nationwide are increasingly hungry for zero-emission vehicles. The industry giants have to pick up speed and start meeting that need."

The Lithium Smart Car will be available to consumers in a full lithium version by 2007. Meanwhile, 6 million viewers this morning watched Regis and Kelly drive away in the little car that could...save the future of the air we breathe.

Members of the media are welcome to visit the Hybrid Technologies Booth, #4240, and are invited to take a spin in a Lithium-powered car at the New York International Auto Show, the Jacob Javitz Center, from April 12th to April 15th.
