The ECOS Harbinger™ brings eurosports styling, sports car performance and the MiMod‐EV™ monitoring and control system to electric vehicle market.
The big EV companies in California and efforts coming out of the auto OEMs with their fat wads of stimulus money have nothing over a couple of small Missouri companies working behind the scenes and starting to make big waves.
ECOS Motors, Springfield, Mo., unveiled its ECOS Harbinger™, a new high‐performance, sports‐style, zero‐emissions electric vehicle during SEMA 2009, November 3 6, 2009 in Las Vegas.

The Harbinger™—a two‐seat sports coupe—combines an enhanced lithium ion battery configuration and high‐output electric controller/engine for performance car power and acceleration. It also mixes an Italian‐inspired composite body design with German‐engineered aluminum frame and suspension system to provide exceptional handling and response on the road.
The heart of the ECOS is the MiMod‐EV build by EVInstruments, LLC, Kansas City, Mo. It's a relatively inexpensive minipc-based system that provides the EV driver with touchscreen controls and customizable functions for monitoring an EV's battery usage and other vehicle functions including GPS, Satellite Radio, Infrared Back-up Camera, entertainment Systems, Wireless Internet and much more.
