JINHUA, China – Kandi Technologies Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “Kandi”) (Nasdaq:KNDI), today (10-2-14) announced that the Kandi-brand SMA7001BEV pure electric vehicle passed the Nanjing local inspection for the licensed plate at the end of September.

ZuoZhongYou (Nanjing) Electric Vehicle Service Co., Ltd. (“ZZY-Nanjing”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Zhejiang ZuoZhongYou Electric Vehicle Service Co., Ltd. (“ZZY”, which the Company indirectly owns a 9.5% ownership interest through its joint venture) has obtained the registration approval from the local State Administration of Industry and Commerce for the formation of ZZY-Nanjing. Upon the completion of the ancillary procedures for ZZY-Nanjing’s establishment, the Car-Share Program will be officially launched in Nanjing.

Located in Eastern China, Nanjing, the capital of Jiangsu province, is about 300 kilometers or 186 miles from Shanghai in the northwest, and is one of the national renewable energy automobile pilot cities. Furthermore, both Kandi’s SMA7000BEV and SMA7001BEV models are eligible to receive not only the national government subsidy of RMB 47,500.00 (Approximately USD 7,738.00), but also the local government subsidy of RMB 47,500.00 (Approximately USD 7,738.00) from Jiangsu provincial government and Nanjing municipal government combined.

About the Car-Share Program

Zhejiang ZuoZhongYou Electric Vehicle Service Co., Ltd. (“ZZY”) is the first in market to initiate the public pure EV sharing program (the “Car-Share” Program). Kandi Technologies, through its 50% ownership interest in Kandi Electric Vehicles Group Co., Ltd. (the “JV Company”), indirectly holds a 9.5% interest in ZZY.

Individually driven pure EVs are used in the Car-Share Program. The charging/parking stations which provide a variety of services, such as charging, maintenance, battery recycling, are located at airports, train stations, hotels, business centers, selected residential areas and other places that are typically congested. A network system provides EV rental service to individual drivers in and around the city. It also provides EV maintenance and battery charging to self-service users. Lastly, a tracking system allows the Car-Share Program management to keep a close watch at the status and precise location of each vehicle.

This Car-Share Program model has been implemented in Hangzhou since the second half of 2013, and has now begun to expand into other major cities in China.

The Group Long-term Lease Project is a lease model that uses enterprise, community or village as a lease unit and each unit leases a minimum of 100 EVs with a group lease term at a minimum of three years.
