The 90 mph Nimbus X looks like an interesting, affordable, enclosed, tilting, three wheeler concept that will likely never make it to market.

Nope.... not at $20k.

I love the concept and always wanted something like that.
I still dream some existing, large manufacturer will build and sell something like that in mass. But that’s not likely to happen.

There are two models, the Halo $6,420 (not rated for highway, 50mph max) and the Nimbus X $19,400 (good for highway, 90mph max) 0-60 in 3.7 sec, 214 miles per charge.

They are also looking to rent them. The Halo has rental pricing but it looks decent.

I would like to see more about the mechanics and how it does in snow.
The terms look reasonable too.

ahhh... I didn't see the Halo. I obviously need to look closer at what they offer. It's great that they have two models. That puts it in a lot better light. I'll have to check 'em closer. Appreciate you guys pointing them out.

Definitely intriguing!

I like the cheaper model with the longer range battery. Seems it will be made in China, not the USA, like the Elio. Would work for me (I think) in delivering groceries and food and my short errands.

.........wait a minute, if you deliver food/groceries, you may need The Deliverator!

I like how the Nimbus is sleek, easy to maneuver, fit anywhere, squeeze in ability. The non-X version is 6,420.
Deliverator looks bulky.

The Deliverator is built on the sleek, quick/agile, easy to maneuver, and fits anywhere FUV Platform.......and more importantly real. The Nimbus is a marketing concept rendering, anticipated specs, anticipated MSRP, no test drive vehicle, and this Forward Looking Statement (FLS): (I”m fairly certain how the Nimbus marketing campaign is going to turn out as Nimbus filters posts on their facebook page). I apologize for starting the Thread. I thought the R&D was much farther along. Beware.

BaldGuy, If I was doing food/grocery deliveries, I would have serious interest in the Deliverator from a convenience and cost savings standpoint and its fun to drive.
