About the brand ❤️
Elio Motors is an American automotive startup focused on developing a highly fuel‑efficient, low‑cost three‑wheeled vehicle designed for urban commuting. The company was founded in 2009 by Paul Elio with the goal of producing an affordable, lightweight vehicle that delivers excellent gas mileage and meets consumer demand for economical transportation. Elio’s flagship concept, often simply called the Elio, is a tandem‑seated three‑wheeler with an enclosed cabin, front‑wheel drive, and a strong emphasis on efficiency and affordability. Despite generating significant public interest and pre‑orders during its early years, Elio Motors has faced production delays, funding challenges, and shifting timelines. The company has continued engineering and development efforts rather than mass production, aiming to bring its unique vehicle to market while navigating regulatory and manufacturing hurdles. Elio Motors remains active in prototype refinement and investor outreach, representing a non‑traditional approach to urban personal mobility in the United States.
