Two words: Trim Levels.

I just walked to the window and looked out on the lot. There are two pickups there, maybe three or four away from each other. One has an asking price of $29,995 and the other is $38,995. They're functionally identical (quad cabs, 6' beds) and in my parts catalog they're the same truck.

If Elio isn't stupid, they'll do the same. $6800 will get you a trike with doors and a roof. You want a nice radio, bluetooth, leather, power windows and a sunroof? Custom fit floor mats? Nav? That ain't going to be the $6800 one.
