They will sell a lot of them.
A three-wheeled vehicle is classified as a motorcycle, so the driver can use the HOV lanes. In some cities, that will be a big incentive. Insurance will be cheaper than a regular car.
You can also finance it in part when you refuel. Say you put $20 worth of gas in the tank, it will bill your card $60 and $40 of it will go towards paying off the vehicle.
I hope so. I like Elio's focus on U.S. jobs. The fact that he's going to do it in Shreveport means he's focused on cost.
Have actually thought about this design myself for a long time: essentially a motorcycle with a body on it. Not good for anything except the commute.
True it can be used in the silly HOV lanes, but one caution...it's not a good mix with Class 8 trucks.
