Elio Motors Engine Unveiling 2/6/2015 -3/6/2015

[pistonboy]

So let me get this 'straight', after announcing the THIRD major delay in their production schedule (Jun/Jul 2014->1st Qtr 2015->3rd Qtr 2015->First ½ 2016), Elio Motors has their first MAJOR PROGRESS announcement since the P4; the Public Unveiling of the IAV Engine (hopefully scheduled and coordinated with IAV, important visitors, and the Press, BEFORE announcing the date), 6 Feb 2015. The same engine that took them 7 months (since accepting the cast parts in April 2014) to machine and assemble, and a Dyno testing date (pushed from 15 Nov 2014 to 28/29 Jan 2015); finally ready to reveal to the PUBLIC..... and TWO DAYS prior a 'stakeholder' says they can't attend.... so the entire event is CANCELLED, and can't be re-scheduled in over THREE WEEKS. For such a VITAL component of the Elio Autocycle, with the disclosure of their financial 'shortcomings', and increasing public concern over lack of demonstrated 'progress'; one would think that any important 'Stakeholder', worth his salt, would DEMAND they continue.... without him.... just to increase confidence in the company and encourage future major investors.

Just does not pass the “smell test”!

Recreational Complaining.

Everyone does this, but some people make it into an art form.

Nothing to worry about there..... I exercise daily, and better BP than average for my age..... BUT I am a bit 'bummed' that I had to cancel my SKI TRIP this year, for lack of snow at the resort we usually fly to! The 'resolution' to my issues are for Elio Motors to SHOW some PROGRESS, and to quit taking money from 'future suckers' with their false claims..... until they actually have the ability to TEST and PRODUCE a vehicle!

Are you muttering to yourself, complaints about Elio Motors as you go down the soaps?

I am sure you are very popular at the ski lodge in evenings doing nonstop complaining about Elio Motors to everyone.

Yes, he has - and yes, it is indeed.

If it were my responsibility would have made it absolutely top priority to get a new date sorted. Seems to me that the success of the entire Elio project pivots around this new engine. If the engine had hit a snag in testing, delaying the launch, I feel sure they would have been up front about it because it's a perfectly valid reason and would have not resulted in the uncertainty now prevailing in the eyes of many.

No money, no engine, no date. The reschedule announcement will follow the funding secured announcement. I'm not surprised. Of course it's my logic working and I could be wrong.
