But these rapid charge levels degrade the life of the battery pack. These cost-related choices also affect the performance of the vehicle. For example, leaving off the electric propulsion system reduces vehicle weight from about pounds kg to approximately pounds kg. This improves diesel-only fuel economy and acceleration. Plans come in three versions, all done in CAD The order form automatically calculates the shipping charge based on weight and destination.

Click on the images to the left to get details on the contents. The Standard Plan-Set consists of conventional printed plans and a page bound manual. The discs contain a one-hour video of the XR3 being built and lots of helpful electronic files. Files include 3D CAD models that can be viewed on your computer, plus conventional drawings.

The manual is also on disc, and runs in a web browser with click to enlarge color images, plus links to vendors, logo files, DXF files for water jet cutting, IGES files for CNC machining, and all the original SolidWorks files in their native format. The Plans-On-Disc set includes the three discs included with the Deluxe Plans-Set, but without printed plans and bound manual.

It is, however, a complete stand-alone set of plans. You can zoom into a particular part and print the drawing with your standard printer. We understand that sometimes it takes a radical re-think to shake up the established order, to realize that tried and true ways of doing things are in fact just old and tired. And we know true change requires being free to dream up unconventional ideas.

For the love of Buddha, why do people keep making things like this? He created his first do-it-yourself plans for Popular Mechanics more than 40 years ago, and Wired wrote a blurb about him in Now the design is headed for production, which was the goal Riley had in mind all along.

So says XR3 Motors in a press release that landed in our email, and who are we to argue? But what the hell is that thing on the nose? Yeah, we know. Sure, it worked for Colin Chapman and his immortal Lotus Seven, but Chapman revolutionized Formula 1 with the monocoque chassis. And how about this: The drivetrain consists of 23hp diesel engine, and Li-Ion battery pack powering electric motors, but both systems are working at, we think, opposite ends of the car.

The biggest issues most three wheeled vehicle designs have is that they don't look like a normal "car". Either they have no roof to speak of or they use an aircraft canopies or gull wing doors. That is their downfall. Nobody wants to crawl up and over to get into them.

Elio changed that paradigm by using a "normal" windshield and a side opening door. That alone is why their vehicle has a chance. It is appealing to a broader market. The XR3 isn't a bad idea, but was poorly executed. The overall styling is dated, the canopy is terrible, the dash is childish and the body lines in the back are both unnecessary and an eyesore. A mix of curved front and harsh straight lines in the back that clash.

Given a few hours time, the general design could be greatly enhanced to work as a marketable side-by side vehicle. Last edited: Mar 5, Grumpy Cat Elio Addict. I guess it would depend what caused the wet seat. I guess the design can be modified. Since it is made from plans, one could build it to have doors instead of a lifting canopy? In , it was - supposedly - going into production. It is a shame it did not.
