Instead of a basketball player driving the Elio, is there anyone here that would donate their time to Elio Motors to drive the Elio cross country to make the Tesla look like a joke? If we could find one person to do this, I know Paul would be tempted. I think that the LeBron James price tag...
Don;t forget, Hari has a MS in Mechanical Engineering. So He would be my boss and tell me what to do when it comes to engineering and making sure i do not go down the wrong path which would cost the company dearly down the road. in addition to that, Hari has extensive experience with V-Vehicle...
The Elio goes 107 mph and the Model 3 is at 130 then the Model S is 155. The reality is, on real highways in the US, even 107 for the Elio is impossible for most of the trip. As we know a test has to be with a production model not a souped up one. Since the Elio now has double the power, the top...
From talking to my neighbor about synthetic fuel (the one that works at Air Products), the main problem which Bosch glosses over is the amount of energy it takes to do this. So it could happen in Europe where they are much more friendly when it comes to wind and solar as opposed to what we do...
Here in our area we have the worlds largest supplier of Hydrogen (Air Products). A few years ago i drove their Hydrogen powered Equinox. It was a fuel cell that powered an electric motor. It pumped out steam. They even had a Ford E450 people mover van but it just had the 4.6 3 valve motor that...
I would have taken the last one they built, pay two 6'8"ft basketball players to start from NY and go to LA. Do a blog on Youtube. Since the Elio goes 672 miles on a tank they could start from Times square and go to the Santa Monica Pier. That's 2807 miles. They could do it in a 5 part series as...
The Joel article is from 2015 and the bill was in 2014. Looks like it changed back.
This is what Tesla is doing: https://www.detroitnews.com/story/business/autos/2019/05/08/payne-tesla-targets-toledo-serve-growing-michigan-market/1130089001/
This is why Paul needs to learn from the Elon school of PR. A super short video showing a tug of war got tons of publicity and it was all over the news. Elon knows a cheap pr stunt reaps rewards. If Elon was in charge of Elio, there would have been a number of these PR stunts and would have...
I read it on his LinkedIn page. He has both companies listed as "Present" for the finishing date.
That's an interesting article. Good to see Elio is trying to help out Tesla too. Just like Elio helping out Polaris, Solo and Vanderhall. I have noticed the law never changed in Michigan. Does...
Let's not forget Envia Systems and that show. Hari was not a founder but he was an executive that filled the gap in between V-Vehicle and Elio Motors.

What's your definition of "future". This video was made a year and a half before Marty McFly and Doc Brown showed up in the future where they don't need roads and MrFusion was all you needed for power.
I was on the BBB site and decided to look up Elio Motors. Seems others are having a hard time to receive a refund on refundable deposits.

That's a mystery. At this point, there is zero researchable evidence that Pauls claim that "half the width, double the mileage" is a reality. I've asked Elio in person and via email and zero response. I would love to see someone shoe me that what Paul says is actually true. This is with real...
It will be hard when you are trying to run completely different products down an assembly line. Thus the reason why Ford doesn’t run pickups and Mustangs down the same line.
The best part is, Tesla is letting everyone know now as opposed to right before they get to production. They were able to see what the bulk of the consumers want and adjust their production schedule accordingly. They learned from the Model 3 and are taking a proactive position now as to keep all...
I don't live in Texas but here in eastern PA, what I see are people that own crew cab short bed pickups. About 30% of them tow a travel trailer up to the Poconos about 4-5 times during the summer. Other than that, they use them like a car. Honestly what i see is what Paul Elio seen when he came...
Remember, Joel still works for Elio Motors. He now has two jobs with the same title. The connection is Hari who is a board member of Elio Motors, Director of Elio Engineering and CEO of Kapeesh. Looks like Hari is super busy working with three different companies and now Joel with two. Best part...
The VP of Governmental Affairs at Elio Motors got a new job as the VP of Governmental Affairs at Kapeesh. Just so you know, the former COO at Elio Motors, current Board Member of Elio Motors, current Director of Elio Engineering, current founder and CEO of Kapeesh, Hari Ilyer hired Joel on. If...
