NEW HIGH MILEAGE CAR TO BE LAUNCHED

MDI NEWS RELEASE - On September 20, a car with an air-compressed engine,
invented by the Frenchman Guy Negre, will be presented in London. The
MDI car can reach a speed of 68 mph and has a road coverage of roughly
124 miles -some 8 hours of travel - which is more than double the road
coverage of an electric car. When recharging the tank, the car needs to
be connected to the mains for 3 to 4 hours or attached to an air pump in
a petrol station for only 2 minutes.

Economy and the ecological benefits are the main advantages for the
client since the car's maintenance cost is 10 times less than that of a
petrol-run car, costing 1 pound for the car to travel for up to 8 hours
or to cover 124 miles in an urban area.

Compressed air is stored in fiber tanks. The expansion of this air
pushes the pistons and creates movement. The atmospheric temperature is
used to re-heat the engine and increase the road coverage. The air
conditioning system makes use of the expelled cold air. Due to the
absence of combustion and the fact there is no pollution, the oil change
is only necessary every 31,000 miles.

At the moment, four models have been made: a car, a taxi (5 passengers),
a pick-up truck and a van. The final selling price will be approximately
5,500 pounds.

"Moteur Development International" is a company founded in Luxembourg,
based in the south of France and with its commercial office in
Barcelona. MDI has researched and developed the Air Car over 10 years
and the technology is protected by more than 30 International patents.

It is predicted that the factory will produce 3.000 cars each year, with
70 staff working only one 8-hour shift a day. If there were 3 shifts
some 9,000 cars could be produced a year.
