The site didn't load for me, but I found their YouTube[1] channel to have a gander. They remind me a lot of the microcars[2] of the 40s and 50s, the most famous of which would be BMW's Isetta[3]. In terms of style, however, I the Elio reminds me a bit of the Messerschmitt KR200[4].

- allsystemsgo 13y agoOh Lord. Their videos could use some work. Not trying to diminish their work though. I'm really happy that multiple companies are tackling the affordable, fuel efficient, car void. I found this piece that discusses their financial viability. http://cleantechnica.com/2013/08/19/paul-elio-motors-releases-financials/ http://cleantechnica.com/2013/08/19/paul-elio-motors-release...
