The company is estimating a debut price for the North American market of $48,000 for the base model. It's a bummer that there is no engine specs on their website. Anyone know anything about these? What about you guys in Europe? See any on the road yet?

Those engine specs are a little disappointing. I recall in one of the videos the company rep boasting they could put engine packages in it up to 200hp. Well where is it? For $48 grand that thing better do roll-on wheelies in 3rd.
