The Arcimoto Story - The Everyday Electric Vehicle - #FutureIDrive

Arcimoto is on the cusp of unveiling its eighth generation SRK product design and the beginning of the push to mass production. This clip shares the reason Arcimoto started, and describes the next steps for the venture in broad strokes.

All the footage of vehicle development and construction show the creation of actual parts for the Generation 8 mule, including castings at Oregon Pattern and Foundry and suspension arm assembly and welding.

That's a really awesome vehicle! I hope it will be the future of motorization

[namenotshown]

Glad you got as far as you did, I'm sure there is more to come somewhere, somehow in your future endevours.

I purchased a 2008 Zap Zebra. What a rolling disaster! It was slowly falling apart when the federal government made Zap recall them, pay us high Kelly Green Book and they were all crushed because of brake problems. No one told me they were made in China or I would have never purchased one. Fortunately, I bought a demo with a few dings in the body from a dealer in bankruptcy and paid very little for the piece of crap. I will have to test drive a Arcimoto. I am impressed with this upload.

I think that is not only green but also neat looking (found site showing it with bodies/shells). I hope they succeed.

I so want one. Most driving is done 1-2 people within spitting distance of their home. Maybe as a future model a 4 wheel with 4 seats. I really believe you guys have a great vehicle. Good luck and I will be reserving my spot in line

Very nice -- this is the path I think the Elio should have taken -- Looking forward to your success and seeing them approved for Canada.
Cheers, Patrick

I've been waiting for this to be invented for 20+ years now, since the Sinclair C5! Get them to the UK ASAP and I'll take one in cash

This is an awesome idea! Thanks for working on this project. Humans need things like this, and badly. I hope you guys also provide for a solar powered home station to recharge the Arcimoto. Recharging from an outlet powered by conventional means like fossil fuels would seem to defeat the purpose of the vehicle. We can't just shift the carbon source from one place, or source to the next. We have to eliminate it entirely from start to finish.

That's a great idea! I've wondered why there aren't any vehicles like this before...

How secure would it be to leave an Arcimoto out on the street at night? I was very interested in Renault Twizy in the past, but I don't have a garage (I'm not not in the USA nor Western Europe) and the Twizy basically doesn't have windows (there's no glass) so it's practically impossible to leave it on the street.

Arcimoto, I love the upcoming SRK can't wait but in the meantime I'd like to show off a little bit but wearing the Arcimoto T-shirt. Where can I buy it? Thanks!

[bigdog]

When are you going to have a demo ride in Dallas-Fort Worth area

[bigdog]

I wonder how long the batteries last over the years are distance and do they have a warranty with it

[zochbuppet]

amazing, Excellent for California and the south west But what do you do when you live north of Chicago, Midwest and into Canada where you can encounter -15 degrees in the January? We know because of the low numbers the Canadian market is usually an after though but still

[sunnypm]

I hope the quality control is better than the text in this video!

[jamesbarnes]

Is it in production, and ready to sell?

[milliamp]

About how many people have reservations so far?

[erupe]

big draw for motorcycles is lane splitting. would you be able to lane split in this? any way the final edition could be a bit thinner?

[MegaDhz]

For $7700 I can buy an fully enclosed ZEV Electric trike (the 5 door one with the hatch rear) with 80 mile range and a heater, windshield wipers, etc. I want one with the 100 mile range option, still less than an Arcimoto

Need doors, they improve aerodinamic.

[mysticsupersaiyangodsupers]

Do you need a drivers license or motorcycle license?
