EUGENE, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Arcimoto, Inc.® (NASDAQ: FUV) — makers of the Fun Utility Vehicle® (FUV®) — an affordable, practical, and thrilling pure electric vehicle for everyday commuters and fleets, has released its first corporate update video since listing on NASDAQ.
This update showcases both the Company’s accomplishments since its September 21, 2017 debut on NASDAQ, and how it is moving expeditiously towards significant vehicle production.
“We are on our way to meeting our plans for volume manufacture,” said Mark Frohnmayer, President and Founder of Arcimoto. “Our original plan called for the commencement of automated manufacture planning and execution within 12 months of closing our Regulation A offering. Due in part to the support we received in that offering, we were able to start this phase quickly after closing.”
In its offering circular, Arcimoto estimated that building up a high-volume Phase 2 manufacturing facility would take 12 months from Phase 2 commencement to reach capacity, as the supply chain and automated manufacturing equipment were established. With the tube and sheet metal laser and tube bender equipment in place, and robotic welders and other operational equipment on the way, Arcimoto should be poised to boot up full serial production on the timeline contemplated in its offering circular.
“We encourage Arcimoto supporters to check out our AMP Update and see firsthand the progress our team is making,” said Arcimoto Founder and President Mark Frohnmayer. “We are committed to creating a world-class production facility, capable of manufacturing reliable, high-quality, and affordable electric vehicles for the masses, and we are pleased to report that we are on-plan in meeting that commitment.”
