Wouldn't it be funny if after following and reserving from Elio, Solo, Arcimoto and Sondors the Ampere comes from out of left field and beats them all to production!
Your right it's not really hate stuff just uninformed reactions to a new concept. They all meet the fun factor for me and as for throwing money at them I don't think a hundred or two hundred dollars is to much to ask for a chance at a early delivery especially when it is refundable. I watch...
I don't need a 3 wheel car. I don't need a 84 mpg car. I have a couple of cars that meet my needs. I want a 3 wheel electric car that will be fun to drive and has a cool factor, that doesn't cost a fortune and so far no one has one sitting in a showroom waiting to be purchased. My only hope is...
https://www.pr.com/press-release/739473 Also had a couple of e-mails from Tony and he said yes to A/C, need to have a top and windshield for the air to work well! Heck it's $200 for a deposit. I'm #29 so why not. I have reservations now on 5 three wheelers maybe one day I'll actually see one!
I have a SIL on all three and would love to have them all but it sure looks like the Solo is the clear favorite. I only hope that they get with the A/C soon or it will be a no go for me here in Arizona!
Very disappointed from chat. First Jerry seemed excited to say 2 deliveries then 4 then 8 then maybe they could produce 16 a month. I guess at #391 that puts me several years away! He also said if you know of a place that they can manufacture let him know? Then I asked if the deliveries were on...
I was told A/C will reduce range 10% that's 90 miles instead of 100. That's fine for me as my daily commute is about 5 miles and if I visit my kids about 60 miles round trip and I could always recharge while there. I don't see the Solo as the long distance car but as a second commuter car it...
Tale of 2 companies. Solo test drives, stores opening, Vancouver auto show, pictures of production, owner available on chat and e-mails. Elio - this is Paul's home town? Sent my receipt for my Solo months ago!
My letter sent.
Dear Mr. President,
Please take some time to review Elio Motors (eliomotors.com} Helping Elio to get into production by giving them the ATVM loan they have been seeking will not only give you great talking points, like how we opened the closed G.M. plant in Shreveport and how we...
I completely understand and that makes sense but for me and probably a few others I would like both. Hell if Sondors makes it I will buy that too. I would expect thou that if you get one of the Signature Solos and then Elio comes out, you should be able to sell your Solo pretty quickly and then...
Really it's not free? I never said it was free. I said you get inline and you don't need the $250 refundable deposit. Plus they take the Elio deposit towards their car. I also realize it may not be for EVERONE but it would be for many who want to drive a car for fun, which from the other post I...
Great interview with Jerry. I want both the Solo and the Elio but I'm sure the Solo will come first. 200,000 in the next 12 months. I'm 391. You want to drive a 3 wheel then you should really send EM your Elio invoice and get online for free.

I watched a new you tube video the other day about Elio and in the comments a woman said her brother in law used to work in the plant for GM and that he has filled out an application for employment with Elio. Does anyone know if they are starting to look for factory workers or is this B.S. They...
This is the e-mail I sent to my congressional rep.
The Alternate Technology Vehicle Manufacturing loan program has money to loan. They have loaned over $8 billion to Ford, $5 billion to Nissan and $425 million to Tesla. Tesla is the only one to pay it back. Elio Motors (which is based here in...
