One of the videos (#883, #884 or #891) recounts the story of how Elon Musk was the first person to wreck an FUV. His old college room mate had an early [SRK? FUV?} and Elon hopped in, 'floored the gas' and went straight into a retaining wall.

Shortly after, he went on record saying Tesla would never make a three-wheeler. So -- one less thing for Arcimoto to worry about.

it looks like it is taking them 9-10 years to go from the first S to the first pickup.
The factory is on day 252 and they expect to roll Cybertrucks off the line by the end of this year.

The Roadster, S, X, 3, Y and Cybertruck are all unique, although they have a family corporate resemblance there are vast differences in the construction.

Arcimoto have teased their V2 chassis -- 150lb, $2K, 3kWh, 35Wh/mi. Probably a tilting front suspension. (I wouldn't want to take one of those out on 126, let alone I-5)
