P4 At Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta 2015

[Francisco]

Greetings all:
Just received response from Elio. The P4 will be in Albuquerque between October 3-11 2015. I was hoping for the P5. I guess that it won't be ready - too bad. Not sure which day I will be there. Ok.
Bueno Bye

Hi Francisco,

I haven't seen any info that leads us to believe that the P5 build is ahead of schedule. 20 weeks is what Paul stated shortly after the build started, and optimistically it started in early June. 20 weeks puts it at late Oct at the earliest. A safe assumption is early November.

Didn't he actually say the P4 took 20 weeks and the P5 should go a bit faster?

he did say he was pushing to get it built as soon as possible .... they have a huge interest in the P5 being right .... while I would love to see them hurry it up, to me it would be more important to have it right and performing as we all hope it will

Hi everyone! I'm new to the forum and am waiting for my SIL number... I was planning on going to the balloon festival to see the Elio but noticed that the tour dates had been changed from the whole week to just two days. I asked ElioMotors for a confirmation and got the following reply:

Hey TMF! Welcome to the forum, and congrats on your reservation!

Great to hear the information above, I'm sure we'll have some forum folks that will spend lots of time wondering what it is that Elio Motors has plans for later that week.

TMFoester, welcome to the forum and be sure to see the Elio at the Balloon Fiesta. That's were I first saw it in 2013 and went home and immediately went all in. Be careful because the Elio is especially addicting.
