few more years and the U.S.A. will be leading production for all items sold in the dollar store.
Bah should only be used when addressing Sheep, as in Bah Bah black sheep, or When addressing a Hum Bug as in Bah hum bug. Now I can say Ha! :p:p This message might be politically incorrect , if so please let me know and I will delete it.

"Despite the price tag, the Sondors EV looks premium."
That's because this Sondors eco-base model doesn't have to compete with any Sondors premium priced models.
It's my belief that the major players make their entry level vehicles look cheap and/or ugly on purpose.

170HP in an 1800lb vehicle? Was that a misspeak? Top speed of 100mph. 0-60 in 6.2 seconds. 75/150/200 mi ranges. 33KWh Battery.

"Many states only require a motorcycle or autocycle license to drive one."
Wrong! The production Sondors will meet the requirements for no MC or AC license required to operate in almost all states.
In that respect, under the current laws, it will be treated the same as what's shown on the Elio license and helmet maps.
C-NET really goofed with that statement and did the Sondors a major disservice by making it.

If you watch the video, it's not ready for production even though it looks like it does in videos. Just like the Elio. Marketing can easily fool you into a prototype being production ready. For Elio, the only thing everyone here has done is sit in one and watched videos of it drive in parking lots and at slow speeds on the street. Even though Sondors seems like it's production ready, it' not either. you will have to wait and see what happens to Sondors in the next few years. At least everyone will be driving around in their Elio before the Sondors makes it to full production. maybe the Sondors will be the 2nd play toy for some.

Amazing what 1 year and $1Million can do regarding SONDORS compared to $141 Million and 10 years regarding Elio.

Many will have their first play toy in 2018 either the FUV or SOLO while waiting on SONDORs and Elio. .

Did not hear about Elio production being before 2018. Sondors production late 2018? How many prototypes that Elio has produced, always promising product in the near future.
