ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consulier Engineering, Inc. ("CEI") experienced an excellent first quarter.
Consolidated net sales increased 38% to $797,600 from $578,300 in 1995.
Consolidated pretax earnings increased $126,400 or 46.9% for the quarter to
$401,600, while consolidated net income increased $96,900 or 57.0%  from
$169,700 to $266,600.  This was due to record operating results from the
company's Southeast automotive parts wholesale subsidiary, and to reductions of
both Selling, General & Administrative expense, and Research & Development
expense.

Consolidated General, administrative and sales expenses decreased 11.8% in the
first quarter from $301,100 to $265,700.  Consolidated Research and Development
expense decreased $42,200 or 48.2% to $45,300.  Early in February 1996 George
Mount, Consulier's President and CEO resigned to pursue other opportunities.
Consulier is continuing its efforts to develop in house products and
technology, however, spending levels have declined since the departure of Mr.
Mount.

Sales of the company's Southeast automotive parts wholesale subsidiary
increased 39.1% to $772,987 in the quarter due to improved economic conditions
and the continued introduction of new products.  Southeast's cost of goods sold
increased to 62.7% of net sales in the quarter from 56.2% in the first quarter
of 1995.  Pretax earnings increased to a record $123,400 for the quarter
compared to $100,100 for the prior year quarter.  Management expects continued
improvement in this business through the balance of the year.

CEI earned $376,000 on its investment in AVM for the quarter, which equates to
an annualized return of 65.6%.  First quarter 1995 income from AVM was $380,900.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Current assets at March 31, 1996 were $2,777,000, a decrease of $235,000 from
December 31, 1995.  An increase of $363,500 in cash was offset by decreases of
$33,800 in accounts receivable, $29,400 in inventories and $55,600 in prepaid
taxes.  Current liabilities increased $79,900 due to an increase of $79,400 in
taxes payable.

     Consulier does not anticipate any material capital additions in 1996.
Current cash flow from AVM and Southeast is more than adequate to meet
operating requirements.  The


                                       8

company may retire additional long term debt during the year.

FUTURE OUTLOOK

Consulier is actively developing its potential products and patented
technologies.  The company currently is seeking partners to manufacture and/or
market products.  During 1995, licensing agreements to market the "torque
multiplying device" and the "Tiger Tail"(TM) pocket winch were suspended.
These products have been redesigned to satisfy objections of the previous
licensee, and conversations have resumed with potential licensees.  Development
efforts continue on the "Consulier Actuator Motor" and the "Hyper-Roll" ball
screw, as well as on an improved intake engine valve which Mr.  Mosler has
patented and which the Company has a option to purchase at Mosler's cost of
development.

Consulier expects continued improvement in the operating results of its
automotive parts wholesale distribution business due to expanded product lines
and the signing of new supply contracts.  Southeast intends to expand its
business through the introduction of new product lines and development of a
wider customer base.

Consulier has an option to purchase one million shares of restricted U.S.
Electricar ("Electricar") common stock at a price of $.50 per share.  CEI is
also entitled to receive production royalties on sales of vehicles using the
composite monocoque construction technology.  No royalties have been received
to date.  Electricar has entered into a voluntary agreement for the benefit of
creditors, and creditor claims for minimum royalties have been filed on
Consulier's behalf.
