I don't know if this has been discussed previously but when they start production what is the anticipated amount of cars produced per day?

250 is what they are hoping from day 1. though there may be a few issues at first.

Silas Sunday produced this great production estimate graph and posted it today to EMOA on Facebook. This pretty much matches what we have been told by Elio Motors in their blog and also what Paul Elio described in the Town Hall meeting while extrapolating a proper ramping up of production instead of just producing hundreds of Elios per shift on day one.

The blue line is line/shift 1, orange is line/shifts 1 & 2, green is both lines/shifts 1 & 2 @ 100%

Wesley is correct and has obviously used the forum search function to answer your question. The forum has tons of information available and using the search function will quickly direct you to the answers and you won' t have to wait for someone to answer your questions. That being said don't be afraid to ask.

And now back to how long will I have to wait... I am hoping to "get mine" in the first year of production in 2017 maybe.

Ouch!!

This vehicle makes sense. The biggest draw back right now is the lack of public knowledge. I have not spoken to one person yet who has even heard of it yet. I am an up-paid advertising agent for Elio.

Reality can some time be a real drag, karl. And while there may be more truth than you think in that 2017 date you threw out there, I HOPE you are wrong.

I'm placing my bet on production starting up by the end of next September, (trusting soul) and that I will be up in Shreveport picking up my Elio by the 1st of December, 2015.

But then back to reality: the "company" has a VERY solid track record of NOT fulfilling the schedule that they lay out there. . . . . , so go figure.

I am "all in" at $100. So I have to wait for all the High rollers to get theirs and then all the folks that saw fit to invest more than I did to get theirs. Getting it on the current schedule puts me into the next calendar year.

None of the others here will be any Happier than I will when I get to drive mine.

Scb, I saved the graph to my hard drive so I could gaze upon its beauty and information. Here's some instructions on how to read it:

The numbers at the top are the running total of cars produced. The numbers at the bottom are number of days after start of production. So if you look at the bottom at say 80 days, you can look up and see 15,600 cars made after 80 days. Then to the left, are the number of cars produced per day. In the 80 day example, you look at the graph, follow it over to the left, and they hope to be making about 475 cars per day after 80 days.
