XEBRA Electric Car From ZAP Now Available on eBay Through Voltage Vehicles Dealership

FULTON, Calif.--Sept. 12, 2006--The unique XEBRA electric car from automotive pioneer ZAP (NYSE Arca:ZP) rolled out to car-buyers in the Sonoma County wine country over the weekend, with two orders placed since opening and additional interest generated on eBay.

ZAP says the XEBRA was designed to fill a very specific need in the US for 100 percent electric city-speed vehicles priced under $10,000 and CEO Steve Schneider says the company is now marketing the only electric car in full production today faster than 25 MPH.

"So far we are pleased with the response at Voltage Vehicles," said Schneider. "Two XEBRAs were sold there since opening, including one to a person who said they were a mayor visiting the area from the Midwest. We also talked to a lot of business-owners who operate fleets asking about the XEBRA PK designed to fit specific uses."

Schneider added that, for the first time ever, Voltage Vehicles has put a first generation demonstrator XEBRA on eBay. As of Monday afternoon, the bidding had reached $6,700 with five days to go. More than 2,000 Internet users have visited the eBay auction site, according to the eBay counter.
