Purolator Courier Ltd. orders 115 Azure hybrid electric vehicles

17 September 2005

Azure Dynamics Corporation (TSX - AZD &
LSE - ADC) ("Azure Dynamics" or the "Company") a leading developer of hybrid
electric and electric powertrains for commercial and military vehicles is
pleased to announce that Purolator Courier Ltd. ("Purolator"), Canada's
largest courier company, has executed an order to purchase 115 new hybrid
electric vehicles.
The order placed by Purolator marks a significant move forward regarding
Purolator's commitment to replace its urban courier vans with environmentally
sensitive vehicles. In September 2003, Azure Dynamics and Purolator signed a
supply agreement for the replacement of up to 2,000 conventional powered
vehicles with Azure powered hybrid electric vehicle technology. The order now
placed by Purolator represents the first commercial production vehicles to be
produced by Azure under that agreement and comes after a period of extensive
pre-production testing by both Purolator and Azure of Purolator vans outfitted
with Azure powertrain technology. Deliveries of the first vehicles will
commence in 2006. Azure continues to advance it's product through various test
prototypes to preproduction vehicles. Ultimately, Azure intends to offer a
full range of series and parallel hybrids.
Campbell Deacon, CEO of Azure Dynamics said, "The 115 hybrid electric
vehicle order is the largest of its kind in the delivery industry. We are
proud to be associated with Purolator and believe their bold leadership will
be instrumental in changing the way the industry does business. Azure will
continue to work to achieve and exceed the performance standards necessary for
Purolator and others to make such ground breaking orders."
Robert Johnson, President and CEO of Purolator remarked, "Given
commercial realities, Purolator is committed to doing what it can to have a
positive impact on the environment. We are pleased that the technology
continues to perform at the high standards we need to see in order to maintain
our excellent delivery performance for our customers. It gives us the
confidence to embark on the next phase of fleet replacement with Azure's
hybrid electric vehicle technology."
