3-wheeled cousin

[OverHillAndDale]

In addition to the bike trikes, Razors and Spyders, a distant cousin is making noise again. Elio had all but disappeared from the press but I'm suddenly seeing little commercials pop up and they CLAIM they'll be selling 3-wheeled cars that get 80+ MPG, seat 2, come with A/C starting at $6800.

Anyone biting?

As long as Paul Elio can find people to buy into this: he'll just keep pushing back delivery dates. nojoke

Their current official release is scheduled for 2017.

The build date is always one more year ahead. They just got $7.2 million and that is supposed to be used for building 100 working prototypes.

Prototyping is a long way from establishing sales facilities, and selling a product that will stand up to the American driving public. Anyone remember the Yugo? Cheap, supposed to be the answer for the person who wanted to save money.

The local Oldsmobile dealer picked up the Yugo brand when they were first introduced. Had them one month and then it was Yugo? What Yugo?

I am not holding my breath for this latest "slow day in the news, advertising blurb." Sorry Paul. :thumbup:

CAVEAT EMPTOR--LET THE BUYER BEWARE.

Yugo?? :shocked:
I heard that they got de-railed by their plans to offer a four-door version...








...Called the Wego!! :joke: :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:

Remember back in the early 60's when small cars became all the rage? Oldsmobile had the 98, and the 88. Then they came out with the Your-an-8. You know, to pi*s around town with?
