Eckhaus Fleet Introduces All-Electric Mitsubishi MIEV To American Fleets

Sacramento, CA, January 16, 2012--Eckhaus Fleet is proud to announce that they have been
chosen to sell the 100% electric Mitsubishi MIEV, nationwide to commercial and government fleets.

The 100% electric Mitsubishi i combines performance with a compact carbon footprint, and a roomy
interior for four adults. The range of 62 miles* is based on an advanced lithium-ion battery pack. The
Mitsubishi i offers a viable alternative to conventionally fueled vehicles. With its size, maneuverability
and fuel savings, it’s often the right choice for urban locations, airports, short deliveries, car sharing,
campus security and courier applications, among many other fleet purposes.

Thanks to Mitsubishi’s proprietary MiEV operating system, the Mitsubishi i gets an astonishing 112-
combined MPGe (miles per gallon equivalent) that clearly beats the Nissan Leaf and every other
vehicle sold in America. Mitsubishi has already delivered approximately 20,000 i-MIEV cars in Japan
and Europe: proven safety and performance history is excellent.

A special fleet model that includes LEVEL lll Fast Charging capability is priced at $30,650 including
delivery, (plus tax and licensing). Tax incentives include $7,500 from the federal government and
many states offer incentives as well! In addition, many local districts have incentives available too.
This would bring the price down to $23,150, or less.**

To a Fleet Manager, the only question is, “How will this car help me meet my fleet needs?”
You can finally “dilute” your fuel with these cars in your fleet.

*Based upon various EPA testing methods using different driving conditions and climate controls; the EPA rated the Mitsubishi i with a driving range of 62 miles per charge. Actual range will vary depending on driving/charging habits, speed, conditions, weather, temperature, and battery age. Gradual loss of battery capacity will result with time and use.
**Taxpayer must incur federal tax liability to receive full benefit. Some States and Counties offer tax incentives in addition to federal incentives. Consult your tax professional.
