Arcimoto, the real thing? ($12k tandem EV trike, 70/130 mi. range)

I’m waiting for the Deliverator to be delivered any moment, at which we will see what is/isn’t working. I’ve affectionately called it “Earl.”

Wait - Arcimoto won't sell customers service parts like brake rotors? What are owners supposed to do in the future when they need parts for normal maintenance - let alone crash damage?

It’s not that they don’t want to. I’m just not sure they have paid employees, money to ship parts, and even a way to take payment. It’s why I got a parts Arcimoto “Earl.”

Ah - the end has finally come.

I see that a month ago Arcimoto was delisted from the NASDAQ because they fail to file SEC quarterly reports. (They did file their 3Q2023 report on 12-Feb-2024)

That report says: " the company’s accounts payable balance is approximately $9,500,000 at February 9, 2024, of which a significant amount is more than 30 days past due."

No doubt their suppliers have cut them off to try to minimize losses.
