They put a TON of work into it, but ultimately I think it was de-railed by ... the apperance of relatively affordable OEM EV's (Nissan Leaf, etc).

If you like aero styling, it was a stunner.

The Sunrise EV2 Project


The Sunrise2 was doomed from the start, evidenced by very low levels of support from other EVDL members. Suffice it to say, the project leader was extremely conversant but has a track record of dead ends.....
