Corbin Motor's Sparrow 2 Three Wheeler Ev

[Rickb]

Mike Corbin's Bird is complete, tested, and ready to fly on the 4th of July. Note the dimpled bulge rear wheel skirt. I like it.

The Sparrow 2:

Look like something the "Ambiguously Gay Duo" would drive around in...

The Solo uses the original Sparrow's platform. Sadly, I heard someone say that same thing about the Elio, the SRK, and the Solo. It must be that they share the three wheel platform. Go three Wheels!

Note: The Solo and Sparrow 2 are both single seaters. The Elio and the SRK are the only options available for the aforementioned Duo.

I find it interesting where the passenger puts their feet; up either side of the driver.

I think the Sparrow is too curvy and bulbous... the design just looks old. I prefer the Solo look, but not over the Elio. The Sparrow reminds me of Mr. Creosote from Monty Python.

I havent seen that comment applied to the Elio, but someone did call it the virgin mobile or some such. The Solo is just way too expensive for what it is.

I like the Sparrow 2's 'Retro Styling' but I'm old too. Style is very personal.

$15K on the Solo EV is fairly reasonable............depending on what it turns out to be in terms of performance, features, and build quality.

Inside EVS. It seems like the Sparrow one with a stretched nose.

I wish they had made this instead.
