The Elio only is possible because it is a motorcycle not a car, it would end up normal priced or impossible to build at all if it were a car.
Again and again I will say the market is there for the cars but they are not here. That is not because of scale or profitability but because they are outlawed. The people already making and selling cars here are very happy that is the case.
government not the free market is what is denying my choice. I would personally go to India and buy a shipping container full of them to use and sell here if the government wouldn't take them from me and put me in jail for doing it.
