Too much $ for too little EV. Lower drag and increase carrying capacity by one. Then reduce charge time or increase range. Or reduce cost and sell as a toy.

Cost more out of the box than a new Nisan Versa, double to triple what the Elio is slated to run (if it ever does.)
While this may make it to production, it's not really comparable in the monetary department.

Half the seating capacity and double the cost of Elio, 1/6th the range, no attention to auto safety (not that it has to as a motorcycle) unlike Elio (though it's also classified as a motorcycle), I might as well get a hover-board.

Renault's Twizy seats two, costs less, and is fast enough for use in the city, which is where those cars are used anyway. Very few people actually ride those cars on the highway, so a top speed of "80 mph (129 km/h)" is useless.

I'm actually surprised that they went with rear-wheel drive, coming out of Canada, eh. FWD is easier to implement for electric than IC, for sure. One can only assume that they'll be providing a snowmobile rear tread accessory that can be swapped in (along with sled rails for the front wheels) between November and April for our Northern neighbors. Beauty, eh?

When it gets cold in Canada,the battery performance range will drop to being useless. As stated by others,how will a rear single drive handle snow? What will it cost to replace the batteries in seven years? Probable more than a entire Eilo. One person? The Solo is about as sensible as a "Smart" car.

Awesome, perfect for a person as commuter/city car as it will have access to HOV lanes and can whip around narrow streets.

This is a very nice vehicle for what it is designed for, going to work and parking cheaply, easily, something worth $10-50/day depending on location. A similar not as good one sells fof $35k and they sell some. Sold a lot more when it was $16k. This unit is everything the other wasn't, lighter, much lower CG and correctly placed to make handling great and well designed.. For commuting it is a little overpowered as not much will beat it at a stoplight. No it isn't for you but for some, especially those who need very low cost commuting, parking,, just what they need. And when they come near you give it a test ride and see just how cool a ride it ist

Even Elio has done that.

@MzunguMkubwa: When designing a three wheeler is ti important to note that front wheel drive three-wheelers with two front wheels tend to roll during cornering. IT takes a sophisticated, read expensive, setup to prevent the drive from rolling the vehicle. That was why the Aptera originally went with rear wheel drive. I know they are defunct but that wasn't technical it was financial management issues.
This would be an awesome car for half the price. But at $15K US I'll look into other solutions.
