SANTA ROSA, CA----Feb 19, 2008 -- Energy Tech Stocks (http://energytechstocks.com) named ZAP #1 in a special feature of "10 Companies That Appear to Have a Chance to Hit It Big."
ZAP (OTC BB:ZAAP.OB has grabbed global headlines in the past few months with its work in electric cars; such popular media as Popular Mechanics, Motor Trend, Automotive News Europe, Wired Magazine, NBC Network News, ABC Network News, The Daily Telegraph, Edmunds, AOL News and countless others.

"Just as important to a company like ZAP," writes Energy Tech Stocks, "experts think the electric vehicle market will be open to small and large companies alike. Indeed, there are more than 30 companies, many of them private firms, presently developing electric vehicles, any of which may one day be in people's garages.

"ZAP seems to be building momentum. It's adding to its dealer network in the U.S., which presently stands at a little over 50 but could, if the company meets its goal, hit 100 by the end of the year. In addition, the company has a joint venture agreement with China Youngman Automotive Group under which it hopes to introduce highway capable electric and hybrid vehicles under the revived 'Detroit Electric' brand name."

Zap is definitely a strong buy. The stock is a great value, they hold the massive intellectual property of 18 patents on the technology, and they're getting customers like UPS buying vehicles in bulk. Not to mention the growing popularity of electric cars (a new model, the Zap-X, will do 0-60 in 4.8 seconds!)
