Eli Electric Vehicles announced exclusive pricing for early adopter customers who reserve an Eli ZERO,  for a limited time. Eli ZERO is being offered at $7,700 (Rs 500,115), a cost saving of up to $3,200 (Rs 207,792). Until May 2018, customers can reserve their Eli ZERO on the Eli Electric Vehicles' website.

The Eli ZERO sells under the NEV (Neighbourhood Electric Vehicles) market and addresses the dynamic transportation demands of modern cities with a fully enclosed, temperature controlled versatile two-seat vehicle with storage for daily drives over shorter distances. Eli ZERO is 100-percent electric and 30-percent more compact than a Smart Car. As an NEV (a federally regulated class of roadway vehicle), Eli ZERO is street legal to drive on roads up to 35 mph (56.33 kmph) in most states. With a top speed of 25 mph (40.23 kmph), Eli ZERO is available with either a 55-mile (88.5 km) or 85-mile (136.79 km) range. It uses a Lithium-Ion 48V battery, and its charging port is compatible with both 120V standard outlets and Level-2 Charging Stations for maximum convenience. The redefined NEV is 90 percent more energy efficient than a fuel car, and, with an MPGe of more than 350, Eli ZERO is one of the top energy-efficient electric vehicles.

Marcus Li, CEO at Eli said, “We are offering the Eli ZERO at a price point that is attainable by just about everyone, making it the perfect second vehicle for around town trips, in addition to using Lyft or a larger vehicle for longer distances.”

Eli ZERO MSRP is $9,900 -11,900 (Rs 642,856-772,726). For a limited time, Eli ZERO can be reserved through its website and consumers who participate in the pre-order reservation will receive their vehicle starting December 2018 in the United States.
