Elio Motors will offer 100 pre-production units of its super-efficient clients in the 4th quarter of 2016. The move will be the firm’s newest little action to get its automobiles to the over 50,000 individuals with reservations for them. These clients should now wait for a little bit longer to experience the three-wheeler.

Elio initially informed the Securities and Exchange Commission that the automaker would utilize these pre-production automobiles for internal functions, however it now chose to offer them. By getting the trikes on the roadway, the firm declares there’s a much better chance to examine how they carry out in genuine conditions. This likewise provides an opportunity to enhance the three-wheelers prior to the complete launch.

The firm confesses that offering the trikes likewise produces enhanced profits. Elio’s statement does not reveal the specific cost of these pre-production examples, however the last variation is expected to begin at only $6,800.

While it benefits the trikes to strike the roadway, there’s bad news for Elio’s reservation holders. Firm now anticipates “the bulk of the customer launch will need to be moved into 2017 at a date to be identified, as the firm continues to look for added financing,” the statement adds. It initially prepared shipments to begin in July 2014 and later on declared late 2016.

They’ll have a 900cc three-cylinder engine that can get the car to 60 miles per hour in an asserted 9.6 seconds if the trikes ever see complete production. We question how much longer the wait may really be.
