No one has paid them 6800 dollars so no they do not have that money. It is unknown how many who have reserved will take custody of a vehicle so they can't even project how much they will received.At 42,000 committed buyers, times 6,800.00, they have well over $285.6 Million Dollars (minimum, most likely a lot more when you add all the extras in) in gross revenue in orders, that will likely quadruple once it starts being built in just the first year and more and more people want one. Right now the numbers are stagnating because there is no firm financing in place.
If 286 Million dollars in firm orders isn't enough confidence for financial backers to lend them the necessary money, I don't know what it will take, and it sure looks like this project won't go anywhere soon, and we surely won't have it built by next year unless something happens, and REAL quick.
