It will definitely fit in the CyberTruck vault. Looks like it would fit in the Model Y with back seats down. Also, you could lash it to the roof using the 2 cross-beam roof rack, with the three tires forming a stable tripod on the glass. By arranging 2 in a '69' configuration, you could get 2 on the roof of any Tesla, except the Model X.

Nice! Dont know if you read the comments, but definitely a backrest and higher BB/pedals are needed, especially if a passenger seat is going to be added. Also, a detachable fairing and roof for weather protection is really useful for people who want to use it for commuting/town use besides the fun use on the weekend on dirt (cf. Drymer from Sinner bikes in Holland).

@Scott Sexton I recently got my eldest daughter an e bike to go back n forth for her first job instead of a more expensive car. Although it does have an auto pedal assistance feature when you pedal, like is implied in this new FUV 3 wheeler, the simplicity of also having 1 throttle on one of the handlebars and just feeling the instant and continually delivered power and the intensity control of the response was just more "enjoyable" in our opinions. It was as simple as a flick of your right wrist. I do understand that adding a simple manual control like that would increase complexity and the overall cost though, but it's my honest opinion. People like to feel like they have a good amount of control. Of course, if FUV never sets the precedent, I'm sure most people won't be bothered in the end by it like me.

Folks at Arcimoto, I hope you're going to make a model that has a throttle so it doesn't necessarily have to be pedaled all the time to be driven, so people with physical limitations can enjoy one too.

Hmm... My road-going mountain-bike cost £95 (ninety-five, brand new from Halfords) over 15 years ago. It costs virtually nothing to own and run, although I've had a couple of new tyres. I've smothered it in a mass of DIY racks and panniers, turning it into a bit of a cargo mule; it weighs 55 lbs unladen, and can carry 50 lbs of groceries. For the past decade (since selling my car) I've ridden it 70 miles a week, every week. I'm in the grey, wet, gloomy, windy, hilly north of England; the weather's awful, the roads are ghastly, the traffic's murder, and I hate, hate, hate cycling. The only positives are the negligible cost and the fact that it keeps my backside in trim. I can't afford to use public transport, nor can I afford an EV of any kind. Cars, e-bikes, e-trikes, e-scooters... One wheel, two wheels, three wheels or four, they're all stupidly expensive, complex, sophisticated whizzy techie toys for bored and trendy rich people. The 'Apple, Dyson, Tesla' demographic. I'm not sure this trike is going to change transport for the masses any more than that ludicrous 'Segway' thing did. The world needs a small, cheap, weather-proof electric vehicle. Cheap?Around £300 [three hundred]. Maybe the Chinese will produce something. Perhaps they already do, but it'll never make it onto British roads without a mysterious 6,750% price increase. For now, I'll just have to stick to pedalling my trusty, rusty old mule. ☹️
