With a subheading of
"Three-wheeled high-MPG vehicles are slated to debut by next year."

"Elio is running way behind schedule, but continues to move forward and has built about two-dozen vehicles"

ugh...

 

[Coss]

It the article they mention the E1C going to the LA Auto Show for unveiling; but ....
it's " ......... Elio's higher-end E1C ....... " a higher end Elio? What's that?

**********************************************************

Below comes from a Sept 8th report they ran

Back tire cover; why is it 1/3 grey/silver and 2/3 black?
Is that supposed to be an artist idea of artistic freedom?

And look at the front wheel covers; why is the right one correct, and the left one odd.
Is that supposed to be a shadow? Pretty well defined.

"Higher end E1C" a term written by a reporter who doesn't have a clue what an engeering unit is.

Maybe higher end means completely optioned out.

My "higher end" shows up when I fall on my face too.

And furthermore...
Are those clouds or is it just the apocalypse?
It's a good picture for all the bulge haters out there.

Same with the back... shadow and light. It's all one color - black.

This is not new news. He is talking about the delays since 2014. Not the recent "schedule."
