  • As an early investor of Eli Electric, we were invited to test out Eli Electric's first production in the United States called the Eli Zero. In this video, we show you the pros and cons of this vehicle and what my honest thoughts are about this car.

    I often agree with you in the eyes of a young person. At 65, I see the as a "this is all that I need" living in a small town. If I went crazy, I would change: 35mph, split seating, folding passenger seat for more trunk-ish space, opening hatch window (like the sun roof). Adding an opening window in the doors... maybe. If it does not change the clean lines.

    This is a very helpful review. All of the cons are valid. I would buy something like this, but in North America it is simply too slow to be on the road, unless it's narrow enough to fit in the bicycle lanes. Oh, and the windows, that's definitely a no, even if the other issues are resolved. How about a two-piece sliding window....

      Oui elle est super cool et très confortable, mais comme il le mentionne dans la vidéo c’est juste dommage qu’elle soit limitée à 45 km/heure et le fait que les vitres soient fixes, oblige le conducteur à ouvrir la porte pour pouvoir interagir avec quelqu’un, lors d’un contrôle par exemple. A part ça, je la trouve géniale pour le centre ville

    Good solution for me. I drive only tens of miles per month, with one or two trips over fifty miles every few months. One needs to drive roughly fifty miles per day to make a Tesla economical. With the money I would save on this car, I can afford to rent a car for the few long trips.

    In several countries in Europe you need a driving license to drive above 25 mph. You also need to be 18 y.o to get a license.
    With this car you can drive with out a license and (!) also earlier than at age of 18.
    Young teens use those (similar but with motor) cars already everywhere today… and the prices are some times even higher. This Eli is going to be very well accepted by many young people who need to get around and go between home and school etc.

    The main reason why I won't get this vehicle is because of the range and the top speed. The nimbus halo ev has a higher top speed and range for less money. I really like the side by side two seat design but its too slow for the average American city and at 12k I would rather have something else.

    It says in the specs it is a 72 v But I am sure you could get a 84v battery this would for sure boost the speed of this. I have an emmo monster s ev bike which top speed is 65KM and hour so not too bad. I can keep up with traffic which city speed is only 40KM an hour so no issues.

      @@fastestmanon3legs454 well the rules in each country would be different. But if you have the 84v and the L,M,H, (low/medium/high) you can go faster. But its more for the battery lasting longer on 1 charge. Speed is good but you must follow your countries speed limit for an ev bike/car rules. here where I am in canada ontario 32km an hour is the limit. I can go faster but to do that I have to acquire a license and have insurance.

    Too slow for a Micro EV. It’s a glorified golf cart. For $12000 put some extra horsepower to convince me to buy this.

  • @RussellHank-t3t
    @RussellHank-t3t 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    These cars are obviously designed for people who don't need a micro car. The furthest I'd drive it is the post office a mile away. Any further and I'd need 35 mph to keep up with the NEEDS of the people behind me. Using one of these on a 35 mph road is figuratively giving other drivers the bird. The laws need to be changed so the cars will have to fit into reality. I'd buy a 35 mph version of this for $8000. I know they're just getting started and need the money for production but I'm not an early adopter. What I did do is spend just over $5k for a conversion that fits my Ford Ranger and I'll take off the bed and build a battery rack as low on the frame as is practical and add a shallow bed for cargo. The top speed of my truck will be 65 mph before removing the engine so I think it will be a better investment than this car after $4000 in batteries.
