Growth Plans Reiterated

In his address to shareholders at the meeting, Mr. Hu reiterated the Company’s previously announced growth forecast of “revenues reaching or exceeding $40 million,” for 2010, which he noted would be close to a record for the Company.

Mr. Hu also commented on the “tremendous demands” for clean energy and energy saving products in China such as Kandi’s battery powered vehicle, the KD5010 and other models the Company may develop. He stated, “We anticipate growing interest in our EV from various local municipal services such as the Postal Service. At the same time, we will look to expand our Chinese consumer base, and to derive revenues from auto sales as well as from servicing the cars working with our joint venture partners.”

Mr. Hu concluded, “Longer term, the outlook for Kandi is very bright. Around the world there is growing interest in electric vehicles and our ‘Express Change’ business model. We strive to be a leading market player in this space, not only with the introduction of KD 5010EVs for Chinese consumers and the CoCo for the U.S. and other countries, but also with continuing innovations throughout the year. Great design and innovation always have been hallmarks of our Company — and this will continue to be the case in the future.”

About Kandi Technologies, Corp.

Kandi Technologies, Corp. (NASDAQ: KNDI) ranks as one of the largest manufacturers and exporters of go-karts in China, making it a world leader in the production of this popular recreational vehicle. It also ranks among the leading manufacturers in China of all terrain vehicles (ATVs), and specialized utility vehicles (UTVs), especially for agricultural purposes. Recently, it introduced a second generation high mileage, two seater three-wheeled motorcycle. A major company focus also has been on the manufacture and sales of highly economical, beautifully designed, all electric super mini cars for neighborhood driving and commuting. Available in the U.S., convertible and hardtop models of the CoCo travel up to 60 miles at speeds reaching 25mph on a six hour charge. In China, the government recently approved the sale there of Kandi EVs, including the larger, more powerful KD5010, now being sold in Jinhua City, where the city’s first “Battery Charging Farm” and “Express Change” battery station has opened. This and planned additional “Express Change” battery stations are operated by a pioneering three partner joint venture in which Kandi holds a 30% interest with China’s leading battery maker, Tianneng Power International, Ltd., and Jinhua Bada Group, a subsidiary of State Grid Power Corporation, China’s largest power company. Participation in China’s first Electric Vehicle (EV) battery replacement services company will mean the development of two revenue streams for Kandi — one from the sale of its battery-powered vehicles and the other from a share of the battery rental, replacement, charging and recycling fees generated by the new joint venture. Kandi believes that battery powered, electric super minis and related services will become the Company’s largest revenue and profit generator.
