This Kia has got to hurt? Do you agree?

Hurt what? The Elio? Completely different market.
And to get the results they did, was it Joe Average driving, or a trained driver following a pre set guideline to follow? Most average drivers are not as consistent as a trained test driver and you could probably knock 30% off the result.

The point is that this Kia is an alternative and it seats four people. But it will start at less than $23,000, aren't we lucky.

Electrics are getting better every year and $23,000 isn't bad .
I don't think its a problem for Elio

At $23K that's 3X the cost of an Elio; plus that $23,00 is base price, I doubt very many make it through the doors as a Base model and since they don't do accessories Ala Cart like the Elio does, you'd have to get a whole package so we're looking at $26K?

I agree. I still want my elio, just wanted to get you guys stirred up! We know that we can't beat the price. And I love the design!

Better be careful.
There are people on this board who will block you and try to shame you if you espouse views which in their opinion don't match theirs. One of them did that to me and made a point of advertising it to the rest of the members on this board.
They don't like to be stirred up.

I know, I heard that from other members. I always have positive things to say about my dream car!
