The blog is to let you know they are still in operation. Plus you can keep checking it because that's where the breaking news will come from (not really because the last breaking news was announced via PR Newswire before it made it on the blog). So maybe I need to change what i said. Check PR...

Elio Motors has a Manufacturers Plate (I've seen it in person). So they are good anywhere in the US. Only thing you need is is proof of insurance. I know Elio has that. So, there's no reason why Paul would not be driving that all around the Phoenix area. Even at that, Elio Motors has a dealers...

Mix that inflatable car with this three wheeler and you hot a lot of hot air: https://phys.org/news/2011-09-toyota-three-wheeler-mph-compressed-air.html Then there's the three wheeled nanoroadster: https://phys.org/news/2016-11-single-molecule-wheelers.html

Go to that area and the price of real estate is way higher than what I'd pay. It's nothing new. If you want, go to San Jose, CA and a house like that will be over $2M. All I got to do is move 20 miles east and my house would be $1M. Reason why I don't live in Central NJ.

We could look at it this way. If Elon Musk announced tomorrow that he will invest $500M into getting the Elio to production, then we could go after him because he runs a money losing business, has been divorced twice and has been on the verge of bankruptcy. With that being the case, we would all...

Before everyone goes down this path, let's just look at the facts: October 2010 (a year after Elio Motors was formed) this happened (according to Paul Elio): https://www.autonews.com/article/20151205/OEM03/312079963/luck-pluck-and-patience-keep-paul-elio-s-quest-alive On the Elio Website, Paul...

I have a $250K house and pay $4500 in taxes. Sounds like I need to move to Phoenix. Now I do use a percentage of my house for business and that cuts down on the total tax bill. I bet Paul is like me, use your house as an office and thus pay less in taxes. It’s a smart move.

Accounting for the $50: Venti Coffee product from Starbucks: $8 Fuel to get to gas station for trip from Scottsdale to Goodyear and back for a lottery ticket (I doubt Paul drives his own product because someone in Phoenix would get a pic of it by now) - $20 Lunch at local restaurant (Since it’s...

I can see why this can work. “Cars are a massively underutilized asset, a fast-depreciating boat anchor around our necks actually, that sit in our driveway most of the time, but cost an arm and a leg every month, whether they're used or not. Car ownership is broken.” - Hari Iyer (Elio Motors...

It's safe to say Geeley has stamping operations in Charleston, SC. Plus they created 1500 American jobs and will have 4000 in the near future: https://www.media.volvocars.com/us/en-us/media/pressreleases/231035/volvo-cars-expands-global-manufacturing-footprint-with-first-us-factory I bet each...

That's not true. They are not broken. It's that if you have a business that you can;t find investors, then the market seems broken to you. For what Paul said, it all made perfect sense until Atlis and Rivian got massive amounts of capital investment. When they did it proved that massive capital...

This is where it shows that it's not been easy for Arcimoto but they didn;t just lay off the whole company as they burned through cash and put everything on hold. They did it slow and are dribbling out product. One thing they are doing is that they know they can only get investment if they are a...

You post is a good example of what it takes to get to production. You put a deposit on an Arcimoto back in 2012 and you will be finally getting one in 3 weeks. That's #19, so it's not like Arcimoto is cranking them out really fast. Plus you had to go for the super expensive one. This shows that...

Since this is the Elio Stock thread, there's one thing that does worry me. It took over 2 months of Elio not reporting that got them to Pinks. I've seen this before where a company fails to report and there's a lag time. Elio was late a year ago and never went to pinks. The other issue is that...

Just remember, you sat in prototypes. Not production versions. When people talk about "quality" it typically means, the level of the interior and exterior components. Suppliers of things like the whole interior, lighting, insulation and exterior components have different levels of what you can...

The Nissan Versa is your only option right now. It offers way more than the Elio except for one department. It's fuel mileage. Other than that not a single three wheeler or 4 wheeler out there can match it. For this soon to be released three wheeler that can, I have never heard of it, so that...

Then just leave out Harley then. The rest make three or 4 wheelers. I'd think that since Harley has been making actual product for a long time with also having plants and engineers that have been designing lots of items for a long time, adding one extra wheel would not be a stretch. It wasn't a...

Maybe actually read my post and then comment again. You obviously did not.

Please take a few trips to Europe. It’ll blow your mind because Tesla has the Taxi market cornered. So in some areas they are already doing driverless cars (still with driver backup). You can do this in Amsterdam and Zürich right now.
