Do any of the widows role or slide down? Especially on the front doors. Are there any windows at all. Hard to tell from a picture.
Came across a photo taken at the AMP of an attached full softshell door/window.

Thanks for the door/window photos. It looks like the softshell is a one piece door and the window is fixed.
I’m certain the window is functional - - -hinged to flip up, down, or out completely. Similar to the photo in reply #806 in this thread.

I’m doing a test drive and AMP tour very soon. If I happen to see/hear anything new I’ll let you know. :)

My wife and I test drove A couple of Arcimoto Betas Thursday. She had little interest period, but immediately following her test drive, it appears she wants her own! It is the most fun I’ve had driving any vehicle and equally important will prove to be one of the most functional utility vehicles I’ve owned after taking delivery in 2019.

So glad the test drive went well! I am seriously thinking I might need one. I wonder if it will be fun enough to replace the Miata in my driveway???

I just signed up for their newsletter and will keep an eye out for test drive events in TX.
Thanks! The engineer responsible for developing the drive train and suspension stated, “it’s like driving my wife’s Miata”.

It was surprisingly comfortable, quiet, smooth, quick, nimble, and a capital FUN ride. The AMP tour was as or even more FUN. Let me know how your test ride goes when the Aricimoto Tour Team rolls into TX. It’s worth the drive if they get within a reasonable driving range of your hometown.
