To Be Held December 28, 2011

We are furnishing this Proxy Statement to the stockholders of Kandi Technologies, Corp., a Delaware corporation in connection with the solicitation, by the Board of Directors of Kandi Technologies, Corp.

When used in this Proxy Statement, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and “Kandi” refer to Kandi Technologies, Corp., a Delaware corporation, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. “China” and the “PRC” refer to the People’s Republic of China.

The date on which we are first sending this Proxy Statement and form of proxy card to our stockholders is on or about December 7, 2011.

This Proxy Statement, our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, and other proxy materials, including the Proxy Card and the Notice of Annual Meeting, are available free of charge online at www.proxyvote.com/483709. Directions to our 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders are available by calling +86-579-8223-9856.

ABOUT THE 2011 ANNUAL MEETING

General: Date, Time and Place

We are providing this Proxy Statement to you in connection with the solicitation, on behalf of our Board, of proxies to be voted at our 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2011 Annual Meeting”) or any postponement or adjournment of that meeting. The 2011 Annual Meeting will held on December 28, 2011, at 10:00p.m. local time at our executive officers, located at 6F, South Tower B, Lianhua Business Center, No. 333 Lianhua Road, Xihu District, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province, China 310013.

Matters to be Considered and Voted Upon

At the 2011 Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to consider and vote (i) to elect the nominees named herein as directors and (ii) to ratify the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm. The Board does not know of any matters to be brought before the meeting other than as set forth in the notice of meeting. If any other matters properly come before the meeting, the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy or their substitutes will vote in accordance with their best judgment on such matters.

Record Date; Stock Outstanding and Entitled to Vote

Our Board has established November 18, 2011 as the record date. Only shareholders of shares of our common stock, par value $.001 per share, as of the record date are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the 2011 Annual Meeting. Each share of common stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote per share on each matter presented to our stockholders for approval at the 2011 Annual Meeting. As of the close of business on November 18, 2011, the record date, we had 27,445,600 shares of our common stock outstanding.

Quorum; Required Vote

A quorum of stockholders is required for the transaction of business at the 2011 Annual Meeting. The presence of at least a majority of all of our shares of common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum at the meeting. Votes cast by proxy or in person at the 2011 Annual Meeting will be tabulated by an election inspector appointed for the meeting and will be taken into account in determining whether or not a quorum is present. Abstentions and broker non-votes, which occur when a broker has not received customer instructions and indicates that it does not have the discretionary authority to vote on a particular matter on the proxy card, will be included in determining the presence of a quorum at the 2011 Annual Meeting. However, neither abstentions nor broker non-votes will be counted, and therefore will have no effect on the outcome on any of the proposals.

Assuming that a quorum is present, our stockholders may take action at the annual meeting with the votes described below.

Election of Directors. Under Delaware law and the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company (“Bylaws”), the affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of our shares of common stock is required to elect each director. Consequently, only shares that are voted in favor of a particular nominee will be counted toward such nominee’s achievement of a plurality. Stockholders do not have any rights to cumulate their votes in the election of directors.

Ratification of the selection of Albert Wong & Co. as our independent registered public accounting firm. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote at the annual meeting is required to ratify the selection of Albert Wong & Co. as our independent registered public accounting firm.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

Under applicable regulations, if a broker holds shares on your behalf, and you do not instruct your broker how to vote those shares on a matter considered “routine,” the broker may generally vote your shares for you. A “broker non-vote” occurs when a broker has not received voting instructions from you on a “non-routine” matter, in which case the broker does not have authority to vote your shares with respect to such matter. Rules that govern how brokers vote your shares have recently changed. Unless you provide voting instructions to a broker holding shares on your behalf, your broker may no longer use discretionary authority to vote your shares on any of the matters to be considered at the 2011 Annual Meeting other than the ratification of our independent registered public accounting firm. Please vote your proxy so your vote can be counted

Voting Procedure; Voting of Proxies; Revocation of Proxies

If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Corporate Stock Transfer, you are considered the “stockholder of record” with respect to those shares. As the stockholder of record, you may vote in person at the 2011 Annual Meeting, vote by telephone using the toll-free number located on the proxy card or vote by proxy using the accompanying proxy card. Whether or not you plan to attend the annual meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. You may still attend the 2011 Annual Meeting and vote in person even if you have already voted by proxy. Please note that the notice letter you received directing you to the website at which the proxy materials are available is not the proxy card and should not be used to submit your vote.

1. To vote in person, come to the 2011 Annual Meeting and we will give you a ballot when you arrive.

2. To vote using the proxy card, simply print the proxy card, complete, sign and date it and return it promptly to Zhu Xiaoying, our Chief Financial Officer, located in the Jinhua City Industrial Zone, Jinhua, Zhejiang Province, China, 321016. Our Board has selected each of Hu Xiaoming and Zhu Xiaoying to serve as proxies.

If you do not return a signed proxy card and do not attend the meeting and vote in person, your shares will not be voted. Shares of our common stock represented by properly executed proxies that are received by us and are not revoked will be voted at the 2011 Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions contained therein. If you return a signed and dated proxy card and instructions are not given, such proxies will be voted FOR election of each nominee for director named herein and FOR ratification of the selection of Albert Wong & Co. as our independent registered public accounting firm. In addition, we reserve the right to exercise discretionary authority to vote proxies, in the manner determined by us, in our sole discretion, on any matters brought before the 2011 Annual Meeting for which we did not receive adequate notice under the proxy rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

If you hold your shares in “street name” through a stockbroker, bank or other nominee rather than directly in your own name, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of such shares. Because a beneficial owner is not a stockholder of record, you may not vote these shares in person at the 2011 Annual Meeting unless you obtain a “legal proxy” from the broker, bank or nominee that holds your shares, giving you the right to vote those shares at the meeting. If you wish to attend the 2011 Annual Meeting and vote in person, you will need to contact your broker, bank or nominee to obtain a legal proxy.

Your proxy is revocable at any time before it is voted at the 2011 Annual Meeting in any of the following three ways:

1. You may submit another properly completed proxy bearing a later date.

2. You may send a written notice that you are revoking your proxy to Zhu Xiaoying, our Chief Financial Officer, located in the Jinhua City Industrial Zone, Jinhua, Zhejiang Province, China, 321016.

3. You may attend the 2011 Annual Meeting and vote in person. However, simply attending the 2011 Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.

Dissenters’ Right of Appraisal

Under Delaware General Corporation Law and the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, stockholders are not entitled to any appraisal or similar rights of dissenters with respect to any of the proposals to be acted upon at the 2011 Annual Meeting.

Proxy Solicitation

We will pay for the entire cost of soliciting proxies. In addition to these proxy materials, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by other means of communication. Directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies. We may also reimburse brokerage firms, banks and other agents for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners.

Householding

SEC rules permit us to deliver a single proxy statement and annual report to one address shared by two or more of our stockholders. This delivery method is referred to as “householding” and can result in significant cost savings. To take advantage of this opportunity, we have delivered only one proxy statement and annual report to multiple stockholders who share an address, unless we received contrary instructions from the impacted stockholders prior to the mailing date. We agree to deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a separate copy of this Proxy Statement and annual report to any stockholder at the shared address to which a single copy of those documents were delivered. If you prefer to receive separate copies of the proxy statement and annual report, contact Zhu Xiaoying, our Chief Financial Officer, at the Jinhua City Industrial Zone, Jinhua, Zhejiang Province, China, 321016.

Stockholder List

For at least ten days prior to the meeting, a list of stockholders entitled to vote at the 2011 Annual Meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, showing the address of and number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder, will be open for examination by any stockholder, for any purpose related to the 2011 Annual Meeting, during ordinary business hours at our principal executive offices. The list will also be available for examination at the 2011 Annual Meeting.

Other Business

The Board is not aware of any other matters to be presented at the 2011 Annual Meeting other than those mentioned in this Proxy Statement and our accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders. If, however, any other matters properly come before the 2011 Annual Meeting, the persons named in the accompanying proxy will vote in accordance with their best judgment.

Proposals of Stockholders for 2012 Annual Meeting

Stockholder proposals will be considered for inclusion in the Proxy Statement for the 2012 Annual Meeting in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), if they are received by the Company, on or before July 17, 2012.

Stockholders who intend to present a proposal at the 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders without inclusion of such proposal in our proxy materials for the 2012 Annual Meeting are required to provide notice of such proposal not less than ninety (90) days nor more than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the one-year anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that if the date of the annual meeting is more than thirty (30) days before or more than sixty (60) days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered, or mailed and received, not earlier than the one hundred and twentieth (120th) day prior to such annual meeting, and not later than the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such meeting or tenth (10th) day following the day on which public disclosure of the date of such annual meeting was first made. Therefore, in order to be included in the proxy statement for 2012 Annual Meeting, stockholder proposals must be received by us no earlier than August 17, 2012, but no later than September 16, 2012, and must otherwise comply with the notice requirements set forth under all applicable Exchange Act and SEC rules.

Stockholder notice shall set forth as to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting: (i) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (ii) the name and address, as they appear on our books, of the stockholder proposing such business, (iii) the class and number of shares of Kandi, which are beneficially owned by the stockholder, (iv) any material interest of the stockholder in such business and (v) any other information that is required to be provided by the stockholder pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act, in his capacity as a proponent to a stockholder proposal.

A stockholder’s notice relating to nomination for directors shall set forth as to each person, if any, whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or re-election as a director: (i) the name, age, business address and residence address of such person, (ii) the principal occupation or employment of such person, (iii) the class and number of shares of Kandi, which are beneficially owned by such person, (iv) a description of all arrangements or understandings between the stockholder and each nominee and any other person(s) (naming such person(s)) pursuant to which the nominations are to be made by the stockholder and (v) any other information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act (including without limitation such person’s written consent to being named in our Proxy Statement, if any, as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected).

Proposals and notices of intention to present proposals at the 2012 Annual Meeting should be addressed to Zhu Xiaoying, our Chief Financial Officer, at the Jinhua City Industrial Zone, Jinhua, Zhejiang Province, China, 321016.

THE BOARD, UPON THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE, RECOMMENDS THAT THE STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL AND RATIFICATION OF ALBERT WONG & CO. AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2011.

Changes in Accountant

As previously disclosed in our proxy statement for fiscal year 2009, effective on June 26, 2009, the Board, upon the Audit Committee’s recommendation, (i) dismissed Weinberg & Company P.A., as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and (ii) approved the appointment and engagement of Albert Wong & Co. as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm.

The audit reports of Weinberg & Company P.A. on our financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the Company’s past two fiscal years and through the subsequent interim period preceding Weinberg & Company P.A.’s there (i) were no disagreements between us and Weinberg & Company P.A. on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures which, if not resolved to Weinberg & Company P.A.’s satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports; and (ii) were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. During our two fiscal years and subsequent interim period preceding June 26, 2009, neither the Company, nor anyone acting on its behalf, consulted with Albert Wong & Co. regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2) of Regulation S-K. We provided Weinberg & Company P.A. with a copy of the disclosures we included in our Current Report on Form 8-K reporting its dismissal, filed July 2, 2009, and Weinberg & Company P.A. furnished us with a letter filed as an exhibit to the filed Form 8-K stating that Weinberg & Company P.A. agreed with the above statements that we made in that Form 8-K.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Non-Audit Services of Independent Accountant

The Audit Committee’s policy is to pre-approve all audit and non-audit services by category, including audit-related services, tax services, and other permitted non-audit services, to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm to the Company. In accordance with the policy, the Audit Committee regularly reviews and receives updates on specific services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm, and the Company’s management may present additional services for approval.

The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

All services rendered by Albert Wong & Co. to the Company are permissible under any applicable laws and regulations. During fiscal year 2010, all services performed by Albert Wong & Co. were approved in advance by the Audit Committee in accordance with the pre-approval policy.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Mr. Hu has served as Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company since June 2007. Our Board continues to believe there are important advantages to Mr. Hu serving in both roles at this time. Mr. Hu is the director most familiar with our business and industry and is best situated to propose Board agendas and lead Board discussions on important matters. Mr. Hu provides a strong link between management and the Board, which promotes clear communication and enhances strategic planning and implementation of corporate strategies. Another advantage is the clarity of leadership provided by one person representing us to employees, stockholders and other stakeholders. Further, four of our seven current Board members have been deemed to be independent by our Board; therefore, we believe our board structure provides sufficient independent oversight of our management.

Our Board is responsible for oversight of the Company’s risk management practices while management is responsible for the day-to-day risk management processes. In the Board’s opinion, this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing the Company. The Board receives periodic reports from management regarding the most significant risks facing the Company. In addition, the Audit Committee assists the Board in its oversight of our risk assessment and risk management policies. Our Audit Committee is empowered to appoint and oversee our independent registered public accounting firm, monitor the integrity of our financial reporting processes and systems of internal controls and provide an avenue of communication among our independent auditors, management, our internal auditing department and our Board.

The Board has not named a lead independent director.

Diversity

The Board does not have a formal policy with respect to Board nominee diversity. However, in recommending proposed nominees to the full Board, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers diversity in the context of the Board as a whole and considers personal characteristics (gender, ethnicity and age), skills and experiences, qualifications and the background of current and prospective directors as important factors in identifying and evaluating potential director nominees, so that the Board, as a whole, will possess what the Board believes are the appropriate skills, talent, expertise and backgrounds necessary to meet the long-term interests of our stockholders and the goals and objectives of the Company.

Director Independence

Our Board reviews each nominee’s relationship with the Company in order to determine whether a director nominee is independent pursuant to the listing rules of NASDAQ. Our Board has determined that each of Jerry Lewin, Zheng Mingyang, Henry Yu and Ni Guangzheng meets the independence requirements and standards currently established by NASDAQ. All of the members of each of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are independent as defined in NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2).

As required under applicable NASDAQ listing standards, in the 2010 fiscal year, our independent directors met 1 time in a regularly scheduled executive session at which only our independent directors were present.

Board Meetings and Committee Meeting; Annual Meeting Attendance

During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Board held 2 meetings and acted through unanimous consent on 6 different occasions. In addition, the Audit Committee held 4 meetings; the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee held 1 meeting; and the Compensation Committee held 1 meeting. During the year ended December 31, 2010, each of the directors attended, in person or by telephone, more than 75% of the meetings of the Board and the committees on which he or she served. We encourage our Board members to attend our Annual Meetings, but we do not have a formal policy requiring attendance. All of our then sitting Board members all attended the 2010 Annual Meeting.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee currently consists of Henry Yu (Chairman), Jerry Lewin and Zheng Mingyang, each of whom is independent under NASDAQ listing standards. During fiscal year ended 2010, Yao Zhengming served as chairman of our the Audit Committee. The Board determined that Mr. Yao qualified as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined by NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2). As a result of Mr. Yao’s decision to resign from our Board, effective January 31, 2011, the Company unanimously appointed Fong Heung Sang to replace Mr. Yao as a member of the Board, the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee and as Chairman of the Audit Committee. The Board determined that Mr. Fong qualified as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined by NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2). As a result of Mr. Fong’s decision to resign from our Board, effective June 30, 2011, the Company unanimously appointed Mr. Yu to replace Mr. Fong as a member of the Board, the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee and as Chairman of the Audit Committee. The Board determined that Mr. Yu qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined by NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2). In addition, as set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the Board determined that Mr. Lewin also qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined by NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2)

The Audit Committee has been established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter, a copy of which was filed as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K, filed November 5, 2007. The Audit Committee is responsible for assisting the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to: (i) the financial reports and other financial information provided by us to the public or any governmental body; (ii) our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements; (iii) our systems of internal controls regarding finance, accounting and legal compliance that have been established by management and the Board; and (iv) our auditing, accounting and financial reporting processes generally. In addition, The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment, retention, compensation and oversight of the work of any registered public accounting firm employed by the Company (including resolution of disagreements between management and the accounting firm regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work or performing other audit, review or other services. Any such registered public accounting firm must report directly to the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee has the ultimate authority and responsibility to evaluate and, where appropriate, replace the registered public accounting firm.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee currently consists of Zheng Mingyang (Chairman), Henry Yu and Ni Guangzheng, each of whom is independent under NASDAQ listing standards. During fiscal year ended 2010, Zheng Mingyang served as chairman of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee is responsible for the administration of all salary, bonus and incentive compensation plans for our officers and key employees. The Compensation Committee reviews and, as it deems appropriate, recommends to the Board policies, practices and procedures relating to the compensation of the officers and other managerial employees and the establishment and administration of employee benefit plans. It advises and consults with the officers of the Company as may be requested regarding managerial personnel policies. We believe that the functioning of our Compensation Committee complies with, any applicable requirements of the NASDAQ Capital Market and SEC rules and regulations.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation in Compensation Decisions

All members of the Compensation Committee are independent directors. No member of our Compensation Committee is a current or former officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, and no director or executive officer of the Company is a director or executive officer of any other corporation that has a director or executive officer who is also a director of the Company.

Nominating and Governance Committee

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee currently consists of Ni Guangzheng (Chairman), Henry Yu and Zheng Mingyang, each of whom is independent under NASDAQ listing standards. During fiscal year ended 2010, Mr. Ni served as chairman of the Compensation Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Nominating Committee”) operates under a written charter, a copy of which was filed as an exhibit to a Current Report on a Form 8-K, filed November 5, 2007. The responsibilities of the Nominating Committee include: (i) identifying individuals qualified to serve as directors or fill any interim vacancies; (ii) recommending to the Board the selection of director nominees for each meeting of the stockholders at which directors are elected; (iii) advising the Board with respect to the composition, procedures and committees of the Board; and (iv) considering any other corporate governance issues that may arise from time to time, and developing appropriate recommendations for the Board. In recommending nominees to the Board, the Nominating Committee considers various criteria, including the ability of the individual to meet the NASDAQ “independence” requirements, general business experience, general financial experience, knowledge of the Company’s industry (including past industry experience), education, and demonstrated character and judgment. The Nominating Committee uses its, as well as the entire Board’s, network of contacts when compiling a list of potential director candidates and has the authority to engage outside consultants. The Nominating Committee will consider director nominees recommended by a stockholder if the stockholder mails timely notice to the Secretary of the Company at its principal offices, which notice includes (i) the name, age and business address of such nominee, (ii) the principal occupation of such nominee, (iii) a brief statement as to such nominee’s qualifications, (iv) a statement that such nominee consents to his or her nomination and will serve as a director if elected, (v) whether such nominee meets the definition of an “independent” director under the NASDAQ listing standards and (vi) the name, address, class and number of shares of capital stock of the Company held by the nominating stockholder. Any person nominated by a stockholder for election to the Board will be evaluated based on the same criteria as all other nominees.

Director Nomination Procedures

The Nominating Committee is generally responsible for soliciting recommendations for candidates for the Board, developing and reviewing background information for such candidates, and making recommendations to the Board with respect to candidates for directors proposed by stockholders. The nomination process involves a careful examination of the performance and qualifications of each incumbent director and potential nominees before deciding whether such person should be recommended for nomination by the Nominating Committee and nominated by the Board. The Board believes that the business experience of its directors has been, and continues to be, critical to the Company’s success. Directors should possess integrity, independence, energy, forthrightness, analytical skills and commitment to devote the necessary time and attention to the Company’s affairs. Directors must possess a willingness to challenge and stimulate management and the ability to work as part of a team in an environment of trust.

In evaluating candidates for potential director nomination, the Nominating Committee will consider, among other things, candidates who are independent, if required, who possess personal and professional integrity, who have good business judgment, who have relevant business and industry experience, education and skills, and who would be effective as directors in collectively serving the long-term interests of our stockholders in light of the needs and challenges facing the Board at the time. The Nominating Committee uses its network of contacts when compiling a list of potential director candidates and may also engage outside consultants (such as professional search firms).

The Board will generally consider all relevant factors, including, among others, each nominee’s applicable expertise and demonstrated excellence in his or her field, the usefulness of such expertise to the Company, the availability of the nominee to devote sufficient time and attention to the affairs of the Company, the nominee’s reputation for personal integrity and ethics, and the nominee’s ability to exercise sound business judgment. Director nominees are reviewed in the context of the existing membership of the Board (including the qualities and skills of the existing directors), the operating requirements of the Company and the long-term interests of its stockholders.

There were no arrangements or understandings between any of our directors and any other person pursuant to which any director was to be selected as a director or selected as a nominee.

Family Relationships

Hu Wangyuan, the son of our Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, Hu Xiaoming, no longer serves as an officer or director of the Company; however, in fiscal year 2010, Mr. Wangyuan served as a Vice President and a director of the Company.

Narrative to Summary Compensation Table

In fiscal 2010, the primary components of our executive compensation programs were base salary and equity compensation. We use base salary to fairly and competitively compensate our executives, including the named executive officers (“NEOs”), for the jobs we ask them to perform. We view base salary as the most stable component of our executive compensation program, as this amount is not at risk. We believe that the base salaries of our executives should be targeted at or above the median of base salaries for executives in similar positions with similar responsibilities at comparable companies, consistent with our compensation philosophy. Because of our emphasis on performance-based compensation for executives, base salary adjustments are generally made only when we believe there is a significant deviation from the market or an increase in responsibility. Our Compensation Committee reviews the base salary levels of our executives each year to determine whether an adjustment is warranted or necessary. In reviewing the compensation of our NEOs, the Compensation Committee reviews compensation practices within our industry, as well as the NEO’s background and experience within our industry, to determine appropriate market-based compensation levels for base annual salary and long-term incentives. The Compensation Committee evaluation takes into account the individual’s performance, responsibilities of the position, adherence to our core values, experience, and external market conditions and practices. In addition, we believe it is a customary and competitive practice to include an equity-based element of compensation to the overall compensation package for NEOs. We believe that a significant portion of the compensation paid to our NEOs should be performance-based and therefore at risk Awards made are granted under the Kandi Technologies, Corp. Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).

Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) - Equity Compensation

At our 2008 Annual Meeting, our stockholders approved the adoption of the Plan, authorizing the issuance of 4,000,000 shares available under the Plan. As of December 31, 2010, 2,600,000 shares had been granted under the Plan. The Plan is intended to enhance the Company’s and its affiliates’ ability to attract and retain highly qualified officers, directors, key employees and other persons, and to motivate such officers, directors, key employees and other persons to serve the Company to expend maximum effort to improve the business results and earnings of the Company, by providing to such persons an opportunity to acquire or increase a direct proprietary interest in the operations and future success of the Company. To this end, the Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock and cash awards. Any of these awards may, but need not, be made as performance incentives to reward attainment of annual or long-term performance goals in accordance with the terms hereof. Stock options granted under the Plan may be non-qualified stock options or incentive stock options. The stock options vest ratably over three years and expire in ten years from the grant date.

The Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, designates whom is eligible to receive awards, determines the form of each award, determines the number of shares of stock subject to each award, establishes the exercise price of each award and such other terms and conditions applicable to the award as the Compensation Committee deems appropriate. Options would become exercisable at such times as may be established by the Compensation Committee when granting the award. No stock option may be exercised more than ten years after the date the option is granted.

Both employment agreements are for ten year terms, ending June 9, 2014.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control

Under Chinese law, we may only terminate employment agreements without cause and without penalty by providing notice of non-renewal one month prior to the date on which the employment agreement is scheduled to expire. If we fail to provide this notice or if we wish to terminate an employment agreement in the absence of cause, as defined in the agreement, then we are obligated to pay the employee one month’s salary for each year we have employed the employee. We are, however, permitted to terminate an employee for cause without penalty pursuant to the employment agreement. If the named executive officer is not terminated for cause, the Company will pay the remaining portion of the executive officer’s salary. Upon termination, any unvested or unexercised stock options are forfeited.

In connection with the share exchange transaction, which took place on June 29, 2007, between Stone Mountain Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Stone Mountain”), Continental Development Ltd, a Hong Kong corporation, and ExcelVantage Group Limited, a British Virgin Islands company, certain of the expenses incurred in the United States in connection with the transaction were paid on behalf of Stone Mountain by Ever Lotts Investment Limited (“ELIL”), an entity set up for this purpose by certain shareholders of Stone Mountain. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, ELIL had paid $841,251 and $841,251, respectively, for expenses in connection with the share exchange transaction.

The following table lists the amount due to related party as of December 31, 2010 and 2009. There is no transaction with related party occurred within the fiscal year of 2010.

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires that the Company’s directors and executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent (10%) of a registered class of its equity securities, file with the SEC reports of ownership and changes in ownership of its common stock and other equity securities. Executive officers, directors, and greater than ten percent (10%) beneficial owners are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports that they file. Based solely upon a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us or written representations that no other reports were required, the Company believes that, during fiscal year 2010, all filing requirements applicable to its executive officers, directors, and greater than ten percent (10%) beneficial owners were met.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee has furnished the following report on its activities during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. The report is not deemed to be “soliciting material” or “filed” with the SEC or subject to the SEC’s proxy rules or to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, and the report shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any prior or subsequent filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act except to the extent that the Company specifically incorporates it by reference into any such filing.

The primary function of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board in its oversight and monitoring of our financial reporting and auditing process. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with our management. The Audit Committee has discussed with our independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards, AU Section 380). The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent auditors required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, and has discussed with the independent auditors the independent auditors' independence. Additionally, the Audit Committee has reviewed fees charged by the independent auditors and has monitored whether the non-audit services provided by its independent auditors are compatible with maintaining the independence of such auditors. Based upon its reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to our Board that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 for filing with the SEC and the Board approved that recommendation.
