After the successful launch of the professional-grade T3 Series Electric
Stand-up Vehicle (ESV) designed for law enforcement and security applications,
T3 Motion, Inc. quickly followed up with the 2008 debut of a four-wheel
LSV/NEV targeted at Public Safety, the CT Micro Car.  Less than a year later,
T3 Motion, Inc., has rolled out the three-wheeled CT3 which reflects T3
Motion, Inc.'s vision for the future of personal commuter and professional
fleet transportation.

In an era of fluctuating fuel prices and the need to maximize Returns on
Investment, T3 Motion, Inc. electric vehicles represent cost-effective,
environmentally-friendly opportunities to transport people, gear, and cargo. 
"Made in the USA" clean technology continues to be forecasted as a growth
sector in not only the current economic climate but also the future.

A version of the CT3 is competing for the Progressive Automotive X Prize in
the Alternative Vehicle Class.  The "CT3-S" is specifically designed and

interpretations of creating the 100 mile per gallon car," said Ki Nam, T3

of fuel today, our zero gas emission CT3-S exemplifies the 'real world'
opportunities electric vehicles have both today and in the future."
