I expect and lot of people will want to ask me about my new Elio, especially the first year. Some times I won't really have time to talk with them and other times I will be able to take a moment to tell them about it. Either way they will want info about the car. Problem is; most have short memories....

This gave me an idea about advertising the Elio. For what it's worth..... if I were in charge at Elio every new car we delivered would come with a stack of "business cards". These would have basic info about the Elio including the web site address. Owners can give one of these cards to every stranger who wants to know about their Elio, and, unless I miss my guess, it will result in Elio making a ton of sales. What a sweet deal for Elio, thousands of people passing out advertising for them and the cool part is they don't have to pay anyone to do it. :fish2:

I would even pay for a deck of those cards. I would rather hand one out than try to explain the Elio in a few minutes.

Safety, real, demonstrable safety,will be critical for the success of the Elio. Elio can't fudge this; they have to hammer on it, repeatedly. The have to be the Volvo of ultra-light cars. As I said before, there is not an exact set of existing tests which will apply to Elio, largely because of the 3-wheel configuration. They are working with the Feds to come up with a standard to be tested against, but without the Autocycle bill being enacted, that's a tough row to hoe. They may have to come with an equivalent set of standards. But not to worry, they are not going to back away from safety. It remains a commitment, I am sure.

Lest we forget. Elio has retained the expertise of an engineering modeling firm to 'model' crash
testing of the Elio design as it
evolves. Evidence the crash
videos we've enjoyed to date.
The E-series testing prototypes
will prove weather the 'models'
we're accurate or not....so we'll
see if their advertised safety
goal is realistic or just wishful
thinking.........

We have seen the Elio modeling crash videos? Where are these at? Sorry if I have missed them, in advance...

Try 'crash simulation' in search forums.
