Other recent/new 3 wheelers...

Quote from jorgebri60

Did they have their prototype there? Curious about whether they’re doing front wheel vs rear wheel drive. Some of the write ups mention front wheel but the video shows and mentions rear. FWD might solve the hydroplaning issue, or lessen the effect that we get.

that was my suggestion to them. The prototype was rear wheel drive. It's the only (show) quality unit. Gave them a good bit of feedback regarding day to day type driving a rear drive reverse trike. Explained that the SS is a toy and owners understand and except the issues in exchange for the fun factor. If selling as a daily driver to a none car person the hydro aspect might cause issues for someone just wanting to get from point a to point b while texting.

Looks like a Slingshot marketed to Prius drivers.

I still wish these guys had made it to market - Persu - FlyTheRoad.

So will it be licensed as a motorcycle (doubt it) or a car (You betcha).

Or did I miss that in one of the posts?

The write ups on it mention that it would most likely be licensed as a motorcycle or autocar as in Texas and a few other stayed now classify the SS

More than a few. According to the Polaris website, Hawaii still hasn't figured out what the Slingshot is. 10 States class the Slingshot as a motorcycle and require a Motorcycle license/endorsement (AK, AR, FL, ME, MA, MS, MT, NE, NY & WI). The rest require a driver's license. Most of those states call the Slingshot an Autocycle with several calling it a motorcycle/trike/three-wheeled vehicle/unconventional vehicle, but accept a regular driver's license. Of course, this info assumes I counted correctly when I went thru the list.

They already have my money. I was part of the initial fund raising.

Any news on it? Are they still going ahead with it?

They are in the second round of getting investors. Looks like it's still a go. They are having way better luck than Elio ever did in the process. If you've never looked in to who Storm Sondors is, you should look him up. He understands the business of crowd funding more than most. And he has already brought out 1 electric device to market that people have loved. The Sondors E-bike was a relatively big hit due to the cost and technology. I trusted his process enough to drop a little over $1100 in to the company.

During the vehicle turn (starting at 2:10 into video), it looked like it had a LOT of body roll...

Well played, sir, well played!

Lois like the Cord 3wheeler will have serious delays.

Got my attention!

Post on TDS says Aquam-ev reportedly does 0-60 in 2 seconds with a 245 mile range. See the thread - https://www.slingshotforums.co…trike.181961/#post-924406.

245 range is not far and that is probably optimistic. OK if your around town driver. I'm getting 299 which is also not that far. Love to see and drive one though.

ooops! Didn't look close enough to see it's all electric. Looks like they took allot of styling clues from the sling.
