I was at a VW show in Vancouver and got to see this cool little electric car. The Solo

It seems like a neat little car.

Kind of neat. But it looks like it's missing the back half, and ground clearance appears to be nonexistant. A billion times cooler than that Elio...

I especially like what appears to be a Momo steering wheel....

intermeccanica makes it. They have other cool stuff.

The fit and finish is lacking but they had a lot of interest and preorders. I hope they do well with it.

I hope they do very well, the world needs more innovative thinking like that.

If Elio had gone electric, they would be shipping cars by now, instead they are held hostage to their engine and supplier

So if they made a wagon it would seat 2. That would be interesting.

Heh, the first thing i thought was 'Hey, it looks like an Elio that actually exists'.
