List of 3-wheeled EVs ??

[SparkE]

I thought that I would take a crack at this... This is "as of August 2018". Yes, "foreign" (non-avail in North America) vehicles are included (although there are no "China only" vehicles at the moment). Please contribute any vehicles I have missed. I remember that there were quite a few "look - we are making a new, cheap EV - fund us!" spiels over the past 2-3 years and don't remember the names of most of them. Only consider vehicles that can reach 45 mph (~70 kph) and with a range of at least 40 miles (~60 km). Thus, what are called Neighborhood Electric Vehicles (NEVs, limited to ~28 mph) in the U.S. don't qualify.

Electra Meccanica is a local company here in Vancouver. I've had the opportunity to test-drive one of their Solo prototypes in a parking lot, and for me it had the feel of an enclosed bike. It's a product that seems to exist in a market space between an electric bike (pedal bike or motorcycle) and tiny cars like the Smart. Unfortunately it's priced similarly to those small cars, and I'm not seeing a lot of room for it in that space.
