Duties on a cycle are 0 to 2.4% of the invoice cost and must meet USA EPA Emission standards........no problem with an EV. I plan on putting a small reservation deposit down on this one if they actually meet their production date.
I agree! I think this is one enclosed Three Wheeler EV to watch. It's well beyond the concept stage because it's being built on the proven Mike Corbin's Sparrow platform. The prototyping and testing was completed by Corbin Motors starting years ago. Yellow it is then.I think the Electrameccanica is deserving of its own thread.
I believe the prototype is to come in November with it being made in 2016.
small is relative, it seems 2k is the deposit they seek??
Production would have to be set in concrete for me to do a $2K pre-order deposit. The EMV17 isn't a concept created by a start up company, but rather an established successful Custom Car Manufacturer redesigning the body style of the previous Corbin Motors production ready Sparrow. ElectraMeccanica & InterMeccanica have production facilities in place and the ability to design and fabricate their own vehicles.
Keep in mind $19,888 CANADIAN/about $15K US Not much more than an option loaded Elio.
Motorcycle import fees are 0% to 2.4% maximum based on the Bill of Sale.
and we're buying our Es because they're economical? not the "big we" just old bikers looking for something our old bones can enjoy. and at 15+ doesn't look like that much of reach- It certainly has the cool factor, and for some the EV is even cooler, speaking of which, does it have A.C.?
