in most places you`ll have to register it as a three wheel motorcycle, but it looks like fun. crazy gas mileage too.

Wasn`t GM working on something like that years ago?

I do remember reading about that quite some time ago, but nothing since. that version for one person, has two wheels in the rear and you actually lean it when turning, like a motorcycle. I don`t think the new elio version will give you that leaning into the curves feeling with the two wheels in the front.

1 wheel in front = DEATH
