Cars from Elio Motors: 1081 kilometers in one gas station

Most Americans (93%) go to work one at a time. Their cars take up a lot of space, consume a lot of fuel and are expensive. Admittedly, it will not be possible to make America one big Copenhagen, where 36% of the population moves around the city on bicycles. But you can make small and environmentally friendly cars!



Seeing this, Paul Elio decided to make a car that would satisfy but not exceed his needs. The result is a hybrid car and motorcycle, which Paul plans to produce under the brand Elio Motors.



Paul's car has few advantages, but they are very serious:

• It costs $6,800.
• At one gas station, he can travel 1081 kilometers

The idea is that almost every family has at least one car that only one person drives. Many have a big car for the whole family and a small, dusty back seat for themselves. This could be a car from Elio Motors. On one side, Elio is a small car. It has two seats, seat belts and an airbag. But it only has three wheels. American law does not recognize three-wheeled cars, so Elio is a motorcycle. A motorcycle or a motorcycle, whatever. However, it is not so simple and there are inconsistencies. In some states, everyone is required to ride a motorcycle in a helmet.
On the other hand, you can drive alone on HOV-lane. These are roads that are only allowed if there is more than one person in the car. But you have a motorcycle!





According to Paul Elio, it is easier to get an official permit for motorcycle production.



It is also worth paying attention to one of the ways to pay the cost of Elio.

The car (motorcycle?) will be available for free. At the same time, you will be given a special payment card to buy gasoline. Every time you buy gasoline worth, say $10, you pay 30. You pay 10 for gasoline and the remaining 20 for your car.





If you travel 30,000 kilometers a year, Elio emits less carbon dioxide than a cow in the same time. We're greener than cows! Paul Elio.
