Elio Motors, Inc. announced that it is planning to launch a three-wheel vehicle that will get up to 84 mpg with a set base price of $7,300, is gearing up to host its world-class supplier partners and showing off its latest engineering vehicle, the E1c, to Midwesterners for the first time at the North American International Auto Show. The E1c engineering vehicle is a significant step forward as Elio Motors progresses from the prototype to production phase. While the exterior looks only slightly different to the human eye compared to past Elio prototypes, the E1c engineering vehicle features foundational and structural improvements to the frame, suspension, and safety systems that will ultimately create a more satisfying driving experience.
