When Pat says he's going live, then it's going to happen. It'll be interesting to see the progress of the ElioCoin and to see how much Elio can raise from it. This is the point that things will change in a hurry since Pat is pretty much in charge of it and has invested in Elio. Knowing him, he...

Lucid is bankrolled by a number of investors which include Americans, Chinese and Japanese. I think you are thinking about Faraday Future that was funded by a Chinese investor but seems to run out of money. Here's the Lucid press release about the Saudis...

Roush was contracted for engineering work. That's what they do. So finding proof that they redesigned a widget on the car is impossible. I do know this. Elio raised $16M in Reg A+. Right after that, Roush is announced at an engineering supplier. After that, Elio gets a new body and chassis along...

Roush has been working for Elio for almost three years. So it's getting to be old news. The only new news is that Elio has decided to stop using their own in house engine and just called up their Blue Chip Supplier and told them to put an existing engine in it...

Elio already has side reflectors. So they are set.

Top it off, on Monday, the county south of Elio Motors Global Headquarters just bought 80 acres of land for $800M and that's where Lucid is going to build their plant. Maybe Elio needs to talk to Pinal County and have them invest in Elio motors too. I wonder if Paul ever talked to them...

Thanks for posting that. The video hits on how the new Solo is so much more production ready and polished over the old Solo. They now have a proper EV as opposed to the home built one in the past. it's obvious he and I are on the same page as he picked out all of the V2 improvements. i hope the...

Depends on what you consider "public function". If it's a pop up function then that would be when they were in Indiana back in May 2017. https://www.eliomotors.com/successful-pop-up-a-great-supplier-and-more/ As for a Trade/Auto show, that would have been in January 2017...

That would have been during the Balloon festival in Albuquerque in 2015 (It's in October). I was up in Los Alamos for a month working on a project and went down to the festival when I had some downtime.

There was a Solo of the past. It was the 2018 models that they built in-house and sold around 40 of them. That's what i'm talking about. Those as compared to the 2019 which looks much more polished and like a real production model.

I wonder if FUVEE or EFFUV or EFUVEE would work?

In the end, the Solo looks much better and much more appealing over anything Corbin and Solo did in the past. That right there will eliminate the home built look that Solo had for the interior and the whole Corbin. It might sell to the enthusiast but not to the masses. The Solo got it right...

Found the video (May 2014). Gas was $3.69 for the national average back when the video came out. I wish that would have been me to experience the Elio on the road as opposed to those two.

Another setback for FUV owners: https://cleantechnica.com/2019/01/13/texas-defends-decency-by-rejecting-arcimoto-owner-fuv-personalized-plate/

Trust me, I asked Elio about this twice and they assured me that the test was going to come out. If soon means more than three years, then I guess they are safe. It's no different than the tube frame chassis and plastic body.

The Corbin was even more of a home made car over. I would be careful when it comes to "handcrafted". There's a reason why Solo pretty much started over and then the production model even looks more polished. That's because they knew that a homebuilt looking car will lead you to bankruptcy...

I checked Fox News and can't find the new Elio story today. Is this a story for tomorrow?

I'd like to see an actual test of the Elio mpg using the same test that a car is subject too. I suspect everyone here would like to see that. It's simple to do and should have been carried out many years ago. That way, Elio (he's an Engineer) would be subject to what other Engineers have to put...

The fist one were. Too much off the shelf components and not designed for the car. Look at the videos of the first ones and it was obvious they went through a catalog to buy the parts. Now it has a real 3D modeled dash and real electronics along with things like the switches and the...
