Last year, Storm Sondors, a Malibu-based entrepreneur, used an IndieGoGo crowdfunding campaign to launch a very basic $499 electric bicycle. He’s since sold 15,000 of his Asian-made electric bikes.
Buoyed by that success, Mr. Sondors has announced the creation of the Sondors Electric Car Company, which he says will sell an electric-powered, aluminum-bodied, three-passenger, enclosed reverse trike with a variety of battery pack options that offer 50 to 200 miles of range.
The Sondors electric trike is supposed to have a starting price of $10,000 and will be called the Model Sondors, more likely a nod to Tesla than to Henry Ford.
The Sondors eCar is envisioned as the most attractive and affordable electric car ever. The Model Sondors electric car has taken a page out of the Elio book by going with three wheels instead of four. The first iterations will be available in three range options: 50 miles, 100 miles, and 200 miles. Sondors expects to unveil a prototype within twelve months after the closing date of the campaign.
