That's why I'd like to see their Porsche 911 install. Maybe they repurpose a 4WD transaxle?

Just like Honda's IMA or the setup fitted to those Volvo hybrid buses that were tested in my hometown some years ago? |

Its not real. It looks to be something for some college kids class.

Just because it is in its early stages doesn't mean the company isn't real.
People probably said the same thing about Amazon and Apple in their early years. Regardless, I will buy the kit as soon as it is available. |

Tell them to join on here and talk about their prototype Ford Ranger. I don't see any technical data just moonshot claims and sales pitches.

Apple had hand built hardware in an era that had either big room filling mini or building sized mainframes or military desk sized micros. Also had lots of friends at HP
Amazon never had issues with their stuff, just making any profits was tough for the first 15 years.

Arcimoto is fourteen years in, and starting to see results. Hatched from sale of a computer gaming company.

Yes I understand that the 1% that succeeded did a lot with a little. But I'm just interested in them showing off what they have since there is not a single thing anywhere on it.

It would be nice if there was more info up. They are friendly when you call, but that is not always convenient.
