Actually it is a very cool concept and looks like it may just become a reality. Looks as if they will use part of the old Hummer plant. |
I've been meaning to create a thread about Elio Motors but I've never gotten around to it.
Elio Motors was on display at Barrett-Jackson - Scottsdale and I had a chance to look at the vehicle that was on display and talk to one of their representatives. He was telling me that they planned to follow Tesla's lead and go with company owned stores - a big mistake, in my opinion, for a small company with limited capital and limited resources.
When I get caught up I'll create a new thread about Elio Motors. It's been awhile since I've done the research, but I'm pretty sure that one of Chrysler's former executives, James Holden, is part of the company.
