Their web site is a little confusing in that one wonders whether they're selling electric vehicles or stock. But I'll get to that later.
The vehicles listed are:
E-Cobra: A small electric "motorcycle" with impressive claims: 60 miles/hr and 120 mile range. Though, I don't see how they get that even with lithium batteries. The whole vehicle is said to weigh 120 lbs. The styling is more like a moped.
Stealth Motorcycle: This looks more like a real motorcycle. Claimed 50 miles/hr speed and 100 mile range is rather dubious. I can believe it gets 50 miles/hr (56 volt pack).
R-Bike: A strange looking bicycle with a backrest (not a recumbent bike, though). Claimed 25 miles/hr speed for 50 miles range. Hmmm, again dubious.
Jin Bike: Another motorcycle with largely the same specs as the Stealth model above. In fact, it looks like the same frame and different body molding.
R-Car: Said to be a conversion of the Chrysler Crossfire. Claimed to have speed in excess of 90 miles/hr and range over 100 miles.
Of those vehicles the only one you can seemingly buy is the E-Cobra, and it's rather costly at nearly $6000.
The only thing I see which can justify the claims is that every vehicle is using lithium batteries. Of course those batteries are going to make the prices very high.
The dubious thing is the high visibility of stockholder information and selling of the stock. My skeptic mind says they are a stock promote scam that's getting vehicles from China and trying to make a go at milking the current high oil prices. I've browsed websites of Chinese vendors and seen similar looking vehicles to these motorcycles and bikes. They could have put together this product lineup without investing any R&D money, and quickly have an impressive looking lineup of vehicles.
Maybe my skeptic mind is in overdrive. The lack of vehicles for sale may be that they're looking for a way to make the lithium batteries more affordable, because otherwise they could spend a lot of money on promotion and fail because the lithium batteries drive the price up too high.
