An Elio reservationists recently sent that suggestion to Elio motors. EM replied that the suggestion was being forwarded to the appropriate people for consideration. However, the rumor has been floating around other Elio groups for at least a year. Elio motors did not start that rumor. The...
Destination charges are required by law. Deborah Mcateer posted an article on that on the Elio motors Owners Association fb group a few weeks ago. Basically before the law went into effect the destination charges varied from place to place. The government saw a big problem ans created the law...
You need to understand that the fender attachment points on the P5 and other prototypes is and never was going to be the final assembly. The attachment points that failed on the P5 were makeshift. Elio motors knew that they would have to take the fenders off often to allow them to get the...
I jumped at the chance to Lock-In my purchase. For those that have not gotten the word yet, the match we got when we placed our deposits still are in effect. I got the 50% match and then some time back got the email from Elio motors saying that we (some of us) were being given a further credit...
Sorry but thye are going to start one production line at 70% capacity or 350 Elio a day for 45 days. The second 45 day period they will run that one line at 100% or 500 Elios a day. The third 45 day period they will split the employees between the two production lines and run each at 70% or 350...
Again I see people jumping to conclusions that are not based on any facts. There are fleet customers on the Elio web site. However, I asked an Elio team member who the fleet customers were and she said they could not tell us. If it was going to be the companies already listed as fleet customers...
Many of you are shooting yourself in the foot by asking agents what the insurance will be at this time. Many insurance companies have not heard of the Elio yet. At the Perry Ga showing of the P5 I overheard one of the Elio team telling a guy that there was a classification between motorcycles...
I had heard that Wells Fargo would not accept the Elio stock from another forum. However, I am in the process of transferring mine at this time. My other comment is some of the companies have told someone that they won't accept the Elio Stock and told others they would. Sometimes it depends on...
As I see it there is no delay. I never believed that we would be in production this year. As for comments about dates being pushed back, I find any such comments silly. Elio motors has never stated an official date for production startup. They have listed several "Target Dates". but those are...
We are good in Georgia. There was already an exemption for us having to wear a helmet written in some of the Ga Codes. I have it bookmarked, code 40-6-315 read exemption (c). As for having to have a MC license, that will be no problem soon. The legislative branch in GA already passed the bill...
If you came to this with no resolve to wait until it is complete, you fooled yourself. How up to date are you on everything that has happened of note today? With all the positive press, stock sale, 25 E vehicles being built to test, the 100 Fleet Elios to be built (at the Shreveport factory)...
You are not going to find any public information telling the status of the ATVM loan. The ATVM board do not give out that info. I will say this,.... One of the requirements we know of is that the Elio (or any other vehicle being considered for a loan) must get at least 75MPG highway. While the...
Two comments. We don;t know exactly when the production line will start up. When it does the plan is set to increase over four, 45 day periods. In the beginning the production will be 350 Elios a day. By the end of the fourth 45 day period the output will be at maximum which is 1,000 Elios a...
I had planned to buy $5000 in shares. However, life as it is prone to do threw some unexpected expenses my way just before the stock purchase window opened. I was able to put $3,000 down and expect to receive my 250 shares when the stock is issued.
I created a fb group for South Carolina Elio Owners a few months ago. I live in Georgia and am a member of the Georgia fb group, but I'm from South Carolina and have family there so I'm interested in there being a S.C. Group. If anyone is interested it is at...
I wrote to Matchbox / Mattel and Elio motors more than a year ago suggesting they get together and offer us an Elio replica. EM said they would forward my suggestion to the appropriate person. But they have as far as I know not said anything publicly about any plan to do this. Cameron that owns...
Elio motors has stated several times in the last year that the target of $6800 is something that they are still making efforts ot reach. And they have said that currently they would have to charge $500 more than that if the Elio was being built now. So Base of $7300. Nothing will be sat in...
