This video shows a first look at the body of the Zap Alias
Prototype in Maumee, Ohio. It sounds like there is no drivetrain
in there yet and that it will be added later in California. The
engineer said the Alias will likely cost about $33,000, go up to
100 miles per charge, and have a top speed of 100mph. It could
be on sale as early as next year, most likely classified as a
motorcycle because of its three wheels.

Zap has a long history of making a lot of promises and CGI
images of new models that they haven't delivered. At least this
time they made a prototype body shell. Hopefully we'll see a fully
running prototype soon, and an actual vehicle for sale soon after
that (hopefully it's not like the obvio which made it to prototype
stage but never went on sale).
