Electric Car Company, Inc. Executes Definitive Agreement With Liberty Electric Cars, USA LLC

Electric Car Company, Inc. (OTCBB:ELCR), a vehicle conversion Company that specializes in electric conversions and manufacturing for the Livery, Fleet and Private Specialty Markets, today announces that it has executed the Definitive Agreement with Liberty Electric Cars, USA LLC. Under the terms of the Agreement, both Companies have agreed to a 50/50 ownership and joint venture that will operate under a newly formed Nevada Corporation named Liberty Electric Car, Inc. The Agreement will combine the respective expertise of the two Companies in the production of high performance zero emission luxury 

Pure Electric

 vehicles.

Pursuant to a recent announcement by the Company dated June 10th of this year, the joint venture will focus initially on the conversion of large luxury 4X4 vehicles like the Range Rover* and the Lincoln MKZ custom limousines using Liberty's groundbreaking proprietary electric power train technology. This proprietary electric power system uses four on-board motors (one for each wheel) and incorporates a state-of-the art energy storage system. This provides a performance ability of 0-60 mph in less than 7 seconds with a top speed of 100mph and a travel range of 200 miles on a 6-hour charge. Until now, this has never been achieved in the large luxury vehicle sector.

The manufacturing of the vehicles will be based at the Electric Car Company's conversion center in Springfield, Missouri. The new Company's plan will be to rollout and establish further conversion centers across the United States on a franchise or company-owned basis.

Liberty Electric Cars has completed extensive testing to prove for the first time a new and unique world-beating technology is set to fundamentally revolutionise the vehicle sector. The testing which took place in June 2010, put a Liberty-converted Range Rover* through its paces to demonstrate the abilities of the technology. The result is proof that the company has created a large, luxury vehicle that is 100 percent zero emission yet performs as well as, and in some cases even better, than any combustion-engine equivalent available on the market today. The new technology can also allow for wireless charging, another world-first, where the car is simply parked over an induction plate and charges automatically without the need for plugs or power leads.

*Liberty Electric Cars is not related to, or endorsed by, Land Rover PLC.

Mr. Gary Spaniak, CEO of Electric Car Company, Inc., states, "We are pleased with the response from our customer base that has expressed extreme interest in a high performance luxury 4X4 and livery vehicle." Mr. Spaniak continues by saying, "We look forward to working with Liberty to provide this kind of first to the market vehicle."
