In 2017 I bought a base AWD Subaru Impreza for $20k with automatic. After rebates (both) the Arcimoto will cost $14,900. They are not the same class of vehicle but I’ll be interested in long term reliability and how many parts you have to throw at each one. For the car, the oil and filter costs $46 alone each 4 months. Looking at new tires already next year. I know our blower motor will fail (they refuse warranty but it’s obvious the sleeve bearings are going bad). Not sure what there is to maintain on the Arcimoto but I’m certain it is far less. I suspect the tires will last longer as the vehicle weighs almost 1/3 my car. Maybe replace gear oil in several years? Brakes?
