Elio Motors revealed plans at the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show for a revolutionary audio system that will be integrated into its three-wheeled vehicle. The audio system, designed in Phoenix, Arizona for Elio Motors by MTX Audio, will offer consumers flexibility and future-proof technology, allowing Elio vehicle owners to easily upgrade their system to avoid obsolescence. The Elio is designed to sell for a targeted $6,800 base price and achieve highway fuel economy of up to 84 miles per gallon.

It will offer many high level comfort and convenience features standard, as well as scalable options for audio entertainment. MTX Audio will provide the vehicle's audio system in several trim levels. The system will be modular, making it easy to upgrade and add features that tailor the system's sound qualities and capabilities, based on customer preferences.

MTX Audio's expertise in developing integrated sound components for the power sports and motorcycle markets, especially its ability to design in flexibility and utilize unique packaging, were among the reasons it was selected as a supplier partner with Elio Motors. In addition to its work with Elio Motors, MTX Audio has designed and manufactured audio systems for Chevrolet, Harley-Davidson, and Polaris. The system is designed to be easily configurable, based on the listener's tastes.

If the listener likes pristine clarity or if they want a deeper, booming bass within the vehicle, it will be easy to modify. The owner, in effect, will be able to custom design his or her sound.
