Not at all , a CanAm Spyder is RWD and is made for fun ,, it has a high powered engine driving the rear wheels and is impractical as an everyday vehicle.
The Elio is simply taking off the shelf small car tech as far as you can to produce a super efficient lowest cost per mile vehicle .. tandem seating results in a small frontal area , the drivetrain is new for this manufacturer but standard FWD stuff , you get A/C , power windows , a stereo , airbags ,,, all you need ... and since a 3 wheeler is a motorcycle you get lower fees for your license plates and in Florida you don't need insurance. I'm buying several for my delivery business.
Oh ,, and it's to be sold as a "sign and drive" no money down where you buy your fuel with an Elio credit card and you get charged 3x the actual fuel purchase ,, with 2x of that going toward the purchase..
