Neat.
Where will you put the batteries ?

Thanks for that I hadn't seen it before and yes you are right.
It looks like an outstanding effort, I just logged on to the web site and watched the video, all looks very professional and at a great price.
I would like to have been able to see the "mechanicals" and whilst the front end views look great, I'm not completely sure about the back.
If my project gets anywhere close to this I will be very proud - the video talks about gas mileage, I didn't see an electric option or did I miss that?
Regards
Martin

the electric option ist your turn
get an elio without engine and build up an electric version

the back of the elio you can see at the end of the video at the homepage
