Electric Personal Transporter Delivers Low Cost Per Mile,  Protects Environment

(Spend pennies per day rather than dollars per gallon)

ZAP, a California company, already well known for pioneering much of today’s best technology in electric-powered automobiles and bicycles, is now introducing a revolutionary and economical personal transporter in scooter format.  Operating cost of the stable three-wheel device is claimed to be pennies per day rather than dollars per gallon.  ZAPPY 3 Personal Transporter is the name of the patented, eco-friendly new “people tool.”  It is designed for safe, economical and effortless transportation of adults or kids over short to medium distances and does it all without smog, petroleum, peddling, wind or water power!

The new ZAPPY3 was conceived to be an affordable home-based transport unit but the relatively light, compact package can also be an invaluable aid on trips away from home. With the steering column collapsed the scooter fits most car trunks and virtually all RV, power & sailboats and commercial truck space.

Gary Starr, board chairman of fast growing ZAP, has always been a big booster of the well-known Segway personal transporter. In a recent interview Gary commented, “Our new devices are not quite as precision made as the Segway but for about the same investment we can put as many as ten people on electric-powered wheels. The ZAPPY 3 unit is retailing for just $499. Furthermore, some folks are just more comfortable with three wheels under them than two - at any price.”
