does anyone have any more info on this?

Seems like a great idea to retro-fit electric assistance to any FWD vehicle.

Where did the pricing comment come from (page 1) saying this was $10k? I can't find any info on the web with pricing?

FWIW i'm also "following" orbis on face book and i've asked if there is any more news since the flurry of info after SEMA show.


************ edit to add: *****************

ok so i got a response from their FB page, yes $10k for two wheels, all production fully allocated for 2019 so if you want anything it'll be next year.

This is a great concept, but i'm out - as a mod to improve mpg it'd take a very long time to recoup your 10k investment.. shame as i really like this approach.
