Smart cars sales went into the toilet too. If you look at VW, every model except for the Tiguan and Atlas has seen a drop in sales yet their overall sales are up. It goes to show what people want to buy as those two SUV's are carrying the brand right now.
You could have a delay. On my VW it actually has this:
0 - DRL on when driving
1 - Parking lights on all of the time
2 - Auto - DRL on and headlights come on automatically plus the convenience feature where the headlights stay on for 15 seconds when you get out and will turn on if you unlock...
Not really. Fiat 500 sales are about 300/month and they just dropped the plain non turbo model. Mini is not so mini any more. The Beetle is a VW Golf with a different body and this is the last year for it due to really bad sales. Honda is one of the best sellers when it comes to small cars...
For the DRL I don't understand why they couldn't do this:
Position 0 - All off
Position 1 - Parking lights on
Position 2 - Headlights/Parking lights
For Position 2, it could be wired to where when you shut the car off, headlights and parking lights go off (as not to kill the battery). They go...
Look at it this way, when Elio went into business back in 2009, just think of what we had for electric cars at that time. Then look at what we got today. What's considered stagnant is like 3-4 years in this day of age With technology we hit plateaus and then it's at a slight upward upward...
What else you need to remember, Japan is about the size of California with 3X the population and it's an island. So small cars make sense. In the US it makes no sense because we got way too much open space. With all of that open space means we have bug houses with big yards and to finish it off...
i'm thinking that the stock price means nothing right now because the Eliocoin is where people will be sticking thier money. Right now it's just people making $50 here and there per day messing around with it. It'll spike when they announce Eliocoin is live and then really high when Eliocoin...
One major thing you'll have to remember is that it'll be a zoning issue. The Elio Store will be a place to order the car, talk to someone, take a test drive and pick up your new Elio. So that's pretty much like a dealer. I suspect that the best idea for many areas is to lease a building in the...
Here's what you need to know from this article:
So guess who is next in like for an STO? Guess who just crated disruptive technology? Guess who invested in the next big thing?

Maybe it's something that runs in the family. Here's what JC France did 9 years ago:

Something else to consider,
So since Elio has that much demand other manufacturers will copy the Elio plan and be selling the same type of car within a year or two. That means the demand for the Elio will put it at #11 in overall vehicle sales in the US. Other companies know this and will react...
Actually cars are not as expensive as we think they are. Here's just one example when it comes to the cheap low end market. A 1980 Chevy Chevette had a base MSRP of $4,057. If you correct that to 2018 that same Chevette would cost $13,039 today. A 2018 Chevy Spark has a base MSRP of $13,050. So...
Elio had that ad about how they were better than a perpetual machine. So, Tesla is now the perpetual machine.

I don't know of anyone that has lost their deposit. Only situation I can think of is if someone dies. At that point it doesn't matter.
That's the life of investing in stocks. If you use emotion, you will lose. Too many people see "the next big thing" and then use examples of Apple, Microsoft...
