DaimlerChrysler and Japan's Largest Oil Company Agree to Test Fuel
Cell Technology

TOKYO, Oct. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- DaimlerChrysler Japan Holding, Ltd. and Nippon Mitsubishi Oil Co., the largest Japanese
energy provider, agreed today to jointly study fuel infrastructure options for fuel cell vehicles.

The DaimlerChrysler AG (NYSE: DCX - news) subsidiary is planning to test fuel cell vehicles in Japan. Nippon Mitsubishi
currently has 29 public ''Eco- Stations'' in Japan that provide electricity, natural gas, methanol and liquid petroleum gas. Initial
fuel cell test vehicles will run on methanol, although the potential for other fuels will be considered. DaimlerChrysler was the first
automaker to demonstrate driveable fuel cells vehicles running on hydrogen and methanol, and the Company also is pursuing
gasoline reformation.

Details of the project, including the number of vehicles to be evaluated and the duration of the program, have yet to be
determined. Both companies agree the successful market introduction of the new technology requires cooperation between
automotive manufacturers and fuel providers.
