The eliomotors.com website is back up. Server crash, or someone forgot to pay a bill perhaps.

Could the door issue be that tubular frame construction has too much flex to use a simple door design. Another thought is maybe the frame are difficult to make with the precision needed for simple bolt in doors, which would take hand fitting. It might be one reason Elio turned to unibody...

Not watching that show. When I give up all hope I plan on deleting elioowners.com from my favorites, not make posts saying what people "need" to do.

If an organization or individual decides to bank roll the production of the Elio, they would take way more control than Paul would like. I would expect them to make absolutely sure there is a big enough market for it. Then get the Elio fully engineered, tested, and certified, before they put...

I am wondering if the configurator has been hacked. The ad, plus the configurator not looking the same from what I remember, has me wondering.

If they get 1000 signatures, they are still going to have to chip in money to hire a lawyer. I don't see a lawyer taking the case unless they get paid in advance.

Maybe if they manage to get a deep pockets investor the first model will be named after him. something like Gates Edition or Buffet mobile

If there would be a risk of someone else taking the name I would say no. I don't use facebook, isn't there a way of turning comments off? As far as potential purchases, they get the things manufactured and on the road that would get peoples interest. What they need right now is investors with...

Probably decided to use the most aerodynamic shape possible. An airship is aerodynamic. Problem with that shape seem to be no down force to keep wheel firmly on the ground.

Can only guess, could be they had more than one option and didn't want to burn any bridges before they actually started into production.

They found a substitute that did not involve a pile of cash to finish developing it. The sum of 120 million. https://www.elioowners.com/posts/198765/
