ZAP (ZAPZ) announced today that its newest model received a casting-call while ABC’s Emmy-nominated show “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” was in the neighborhood. The episode in which Extreme Makeover requested the ZAPPY3 is scheduled to air on Sunday, October 10th at 8 p.m. Pacific Time on ABC. The cast and crew heard about ZAP’s new 3-wheeled electric scooter while filming an episode near Santa Rosa where ZAP is Headquartered and requested a couple of scooters for the shoot. ZAP says that the production crew along with host Ty Pennington found the silent-running scooter useful for their location work. Also, the subjects of this latest episode, the Pope Family, enjoyed playing around on the high performance scooter as they watched the transformation of their home. Equipped with a handy basket for running items back and forth during the shoot, the production crew of Extreme Makeover said their collapsible ZAPPY3’s would get a workout on other remodels during the season.
