ECD Automotive Design Launches Luxury Agent Program to Expand Sales Reach and Drive Production Growth

New Sales Channel Builds on 2026 Product Expansion and Advances Factory Utilization Strategy

KISSIMMEE, Fla., Dec. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ECD Automotive Design, Inc. (“ECD” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ECDA), the world’s largest Land Rover and Jaguar restoration company known for its custom luxury builds, including bespoke Defenders, Range Rovers, Jaguar E-Types, Ford Mustangs, and Toyota FJs, today announced the launch of its Luxury Agent Program, a new sales channel designed to complement the Company’s existing direct-to-consumer strategy, expand market reach, and increase production.

Under the Luxury Agent Program, ECD will partner with select U.S.-based luxury and exotic automotive advisors, including dealers and professionals (the “Luxury Agents”) deeply embedded in the high-net-worth and collector vehicle ecosystem. These Luxury Agents will introduce qualified clients to ECD’s full portfolio of classic and modern 4x4s and its boutique lineup of Jaguar, Porsche, Mustang, and BMW builds. ECD’s in-house design team will then take over the customization process, leading clients through the high-touch, one-of-one experience for bespoke upgrades and hands-on project management through delivery.

“As we expand our product lineup and focus on increasing factory utilization, broadening our sales reach is a natural next step,” said Scott Wallace, CEO and Co-Founder of ECD. “The Luxury Agent Program enables us to partner with trusted advisors serving the luxury automobile market to drive incremental demand across our portfolio. The Program should improve production efficiency, and enhance fixed-cost absorption, all while building our brand and preserving the craftsmanship, design, and high-touch customer experience that sets ECD apart.”

Early market response to the program has been positive. ECD has onboarded and trained its first Luxury Agent, who will earn a commission on the base vehicle price for each successfully completed build. The Company expects to continue expanding the agent network throughout 2026.

The Luxury Agent Program builds on ECD’s December 26, 2025 increased product offering announcement, which outlined expanded heritage and modern vehicle platforms, enhanced engineering capabilities, and a renewed focus on operational efficiency and factory utilization heading into 2026.
