Defiant Ev 3

Just saw this and thought I'd share. Looks appealing to me, though still has some of the EV downsides.

Love the style, dash, and rear seat space!
Dislike the base price, range, and charge time.
Will be thrilled when EV tech gets cheaper and better range.

Interesting design but is far behind Elio in funding. Still can't go anywhere from here with a 70 mile range and too expensive for most of us.

The 70 mile range works for me and many others as an around town commuter. Plus there is an extended range option, but adds even more cost. It's the cost factor that is prohibitive for me. The Elio will serve eactly the same purpose for my personal needs as a local commuter. No way is either the Elio or an EV a long distance roadtrippen ride for my wife and I. The Elio will be my first motorcycle.

The EV is truly an and vehicle as is the Elio for most consumers. I have a primary vehicle for driving friends and family and or for road trips when we require range, comfort, storage for baggage, bikes, and gear.

RickB.... it may have a MC vin but it's not gonna feel like a MC at all.

Gizmo......I know, but it will still be my first motorcycle/Trike. The Elio will tide me over until I get my Lit C-1 EV enclosed cabin self balancing two wheeler with the lean and performance of a REAL motorcycle:
