We previously noted that the SEC had qualified Elio Motors Regulation A+ offering – the largest to date. Now, StartEngine, the platform on which the offering is being conducted, has announced that Elio Motors has raised nearly $16 million to date from this offering.  The offering is expected to close on February 1, 2016.

We caution, as does the press release, that the securities offered are “highly speculative.”
