    The Elio Automatic Transmission

    Ok, it is time for me to end the year by highlighting my ignorance. I've looked at every post in this topic/thread and haven't found an answer. What is the efficiency differential between the manual and AMT transmissions? Our Honda Civic, manual, has problems in hilly terrain - often having to...

    Commuters

    Until last year, my commute was about 25 miles per day. It is now about 350 miles, one way, from my home to the office. Luckily, I only go there once a quarter; the rest of the time I work from my home office. That averages out to about 11.67 miles per day. The point of this meaningless drivel...

    Standard Equipment And Options

    I'll bet you wax your modem to make it go faster too. When I read nickskeys post I thought, "4 minutes? Wow, that's fast." My normal internet connection acts like i'm using a Dixie cup and a string. When I want speed, I tether to my phone. If they hadn't run out of copper here and started...

    The Hud For The Elio

    From the pictures and the prose, it really looks like Elio's HUD is the iScout. Continental's "Combiner" HUD looks similar but different enough to possibly exclude it. Whatever... I have time to wait for more definitive information from Elio. OTOH: Are we all members of E-Nation?

    Locked-in Poll

    I had the same problems with trying to lock in and being told that I didn't have a non-refundable reservation. The problem was that I needed to use the original email address I used when I went All-In. As soon as I used that old address (luckily it is still valid) then my lock-in went through...

    The Real P5 ?

    Did anyone notice that the engine poster lists 60 HP while the "P5 Spec Sheet" (link provided by slinches) lists 55 HP?

    Visited The August 4th Event In Portland

    My post about my visit to the Elio Event today, at Washington Square, can be found here. I forgot to add, they confirmed that the P5 would be RED. Not blue like in the current renderings and posters.

    How Many Have Seen An Elio In Person?

    I first saw the P3 in November 2013 at Lloyd Center Mall in Portland, OR. A few weeks later I went all in. I managed to get my wife to go with me to see the P4 when it was at Washington Square in July 2014. I just got back from seeing the P4 again, at Washington Square. I haven't decided...

    New Tour Schedule, Portland Or, Denver Co And Las Vegas Nv

    Trip Report for the Portland, Oregon Elio event at Washington Square on September 12, 2015. I went to the Portland, Oregon Elio event at Washington Square today. My camera wasn't working so I may need to go back tomorrow to take pictures. Unlike when they were here in July 2014, this one...

    New Tour Schedule, Portland Or, Denver Co And Las Vegas Nv

    Ty, My camera decided not to work today. Pictures I took of the P4 at the July 2014 event are in the regional forum for Oregon, here. If I can go back tomorrow, I will make sure that the camera(s) I take are working.

    Visited The August 4th Event In Portland

    Maybe we should have a gathering at Washington Square this weekend and show our support? It might be nice to actually meet other committed Elio enthusiasts face-to-face.

    84 Mpg

    I didn't mean to pull this thread off topic. The gist of my comments about snow was that I thought the Elio would be able to handle it as well as anything else (other than 4WD) and better than the RWD BMW. And, do it with 3 to 4 times the fuel efficiency. Snow in the Portland/Vancouver area...

    84 Mpg

    We currently have two cars: A Honda Civic Hybrid and a BMW Z4. The Honda averages about 38 to 40 MPG in mixed city / rural driving and up to 42 MPG highway. The BMW averages 21.5 mixed but 35 to 38 highway. We live in a hilly area - our driveway has a 200' elevation change over 1400'. I will...

    Peugot Egochine

    Egochine B Concept Car from Paolo De Giusti This is one of a long line of three-wheel concept cars from Peugot. I realize that the vehicle looks more like a razor than a car. The Egochine B concept was designed by Paolo De Giusti for a Peugeot Design contest. The futuristic vehicle is based...
