We intend to increase, not reduce battery cell purchases from Panasonic, LG & CATL (possibly other partners too). However, even with our cell suppliers going at maximum speed, we still foresee significant shortages in 2022 & beyond unless we also take action ourselves

The mind-blowing may well involve production numbers beyond anyone's expectation?
China, Germany and Texas are large enough to produce over half a million cars per year each, so... to blow minds it must be more than that even?
@freebeard: I just put a limit order on 20 FUV. It needs to drop a bit to execute, so it may not materialize; but I like the Arcimoto even though I'll probably never own one.
