Arcimoto, maker of pint-sized electric vehicles, has a new EV. By the looks of it, it’s no joy ride.
The Eugene, Oregon-based startup toptechtrends.com/2023/02/21/arcimoto-promises-new-3-wheeled-evs-will-steer-better-as-it-ramps-up-2023-deliveries/”>dodged bankruptcy in February and toptechtrends.com/2023/04/20/three-wheeled-ev-startup-arcimoto-shuffles-leadership-again/”>strapped in its third CEO in April. On Tuesday, the company shared its next chapter: a little truck called the MUV (a “Modular Utility Vehicle”) with customizable rear storage space, a top speed of 75 mph, an estimated 102 miles “city range” and just three wheels.
Based on Arcimoto’s preexisting FUV (that is, “toptechtrends.com/2023/02/11/the-arcimoto-fun-utility-vehicle-is-a-blast-that-might-not-last/”>Fun Utility Vehicle“) platform, buyers can equip the new EV with a pickup-style bed or a fully enclosed storage box. Or they can strip it down to a flatbed “in under 10 minutes,” the startup claims.
Arcimoto said in a statement that the MUV is available now, starting at $23,500 a pop. The automaker is clearly focused on selling these vehicles in bulk, seeing as its website points visitors to a fleet inquiry page — in lieu of a buy now button.
