World-Class Coatings Supplier Returns to site of former GM Shreveport Assembly Plant
PHOENIX, Dec. 12, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Elio Motors, Inc. (OTCQX: ELIO), the startup vehicle manufacturer planning to launch a three-wheel vehicle that will get up to 84 mpg with a set base price of $7,300*, today announced that it has named BASF Coatings as its official supplier of paints, coatings and finishes.
Elio Motors will provide vehicles in seven eye-catching colors – Licorice, Red Hot, Marshmallow, Sour Apple, Rocket Silver, Creamsicle and True Blue.
"BASF is a world-class organization, pre-eminent paint supplier and another excellent addition to our supplier team," said Paul Elio, founder and CEO of Elio Motors.
