Since the 2009 conception, the company illustrated and repeatedly delayed a release date for its original gasoline powered vehicle, pivoted to an electric powered concept, collected an estimated $28 million of deposits, has been fined $7.5 million for failing to create promised jobs in Louisiana and as of May 2022 has not neared production.

As early as 2015, The New York Times noted Elio Motors was selling "spots on the waiting list — and, more broadly, a dream."
