Long Beach, CA
We had a demonstrator MonoTracer in the Long Beach, CA area, from 4/11 until 4/18. While in the area, AutoWeek Magazine did a test-drive and feature story on the MonoTracer. In addition, the MonoTracer was on display at the Long Beach Grand Priz, and in fact, did a lap of the race track just before the start of the IndyCar race. Finally, numerious interested parties took test-rides in the MonoTracer. _________________

DAYTONA BEACH, FL
The X-Tracer, along with a MonoTracer from Atlanta, and an EcoMobile from Pennsylvannia attended Bike Week at Daytona Beach Florida, from March 8th thru the AMA Superbike races on March 12th. Numerous individuals which are considering purchasing a MonoTracer took test-rides in one or more of the vehicles. The response from those of the 500,000 Bike Week participants which happened to see the vehicles was very favorable; even the "Harley-guys" were impressed!

LOS ANGELES, CA
The first California MonoTracer made a run through all the L.A. 'hot spots': Sunset Blvd., Rodeo Drive, Santa Monica Pier, 3rd Street Promenade, and of course, a spirited ride down Mulholland Drive to the world famous Rock Store. Los Angeles area residents and tourist welcomed the MonoTracer with thumbs UP, and cameras flashing!
Possibly the most fun (AND most utilitarian use of the MonoTracer) occurred during a rush-hour run from Santa Monica to San Dimas.... in the rain. Given California lane-splitting laws, the MonoTracer was PERFECT for getting through traffic quickly, and still arriving for a business meeting dry and comfortable.

-----------------------------------------------
21st Century MotoringSM was established to act as a North American Agency for MonoTracer of Switzerland, featuring of course, the MonoTracer. There are two MonoTracer models, both based on a very strong DuPont Kevlar® composite monocoque, or "fuselage". The MT i1200 is currently available and is powered by a BMW 1200cc gas engine). The MT e150 is expected to be available some time in March 2012, and will be powered by the AC Propulsion 150kW electric motor. Whichever model you choose, the MonoTracer is a high-performance, 2-seater, unlike any other vehicle. It is the only vehicle in existence that gives you:
- The excitement & fun of a motorcycle,
- The performance & all-weather comfort of a sports car, and
- The exclusiveness of an Italian super-car.
(All this, and it happens to be very fuel-efficient also!)
The fully battery-electric MT e150 provides the same great performance, same feel & fun of the MT i1200, but gets over 300 MPGe highway, and has NO engine noise! With no engine noise, no clutching, no shifting, and TONS of torque, the MT-150 is a pleasure, and a thrill, to drive!
MONOTRACER PRICING
The MT i1200 has a base price of $80,000.
The MT e150 is expected to have a base price of $100,000, and expected to be available in March 2012.
Contact Jim Lorimer for more information about placing an order for a MT i1200,
or reserving an MT e150.

"Like the feeling of flying just above the ground; which any pilot will tell you, is one of the best sensations in the world"
Arnold Wagner, Inventor of the Ecomobile
The MonoTracer vehicle offers a unique blend of looks, comfort, performance, and driving experience, not offered by any other vehicle, at ANY price. MonoTracer owners are a self-selecting group of customers, who are prepared to go through a more challenging training program, in order to enjoy the unique experience that such a machine can provide. It is important that prospective customers understand that they will not be able to simply jump into one of these machines and drive it away using only the skills they have already acquired to drive a car, or even both a car and a motorcycle. With the MonoTracer, you need to combine both car and motorcycle driving skills, and then add some new ones. Thus, new owners need to understand that they are learning to drive a completely different kind of vehicle, akin to learning to fly a plane -- which explains why many MonoTracer owners are private or professional pilots, or those who always aspired to be a pilot, but never had the time....
