very interesting... that they are selling in over seas markets when the largest demand is in the us. i find it cool that they revived an old company name for the sake of it.

although i also noticed that the 'sedan' is not their primary focus, but they 'may' get into those soon.

nobody commits to a sedan model but one company that i know of which is centering it's entire line around is goss132. another startup like tesla, but i have a strong inclination that they will be a force to contend with. so many people would buy those sedan's like crazy.
