Just read the SEC filings and then you'll get the official numbers. 2,451 might have been a number back in 2013 though.

They had 57K in non refundables, the other 8K were ron refundables. It took 52 months to get to the 65K threshold. The reservations took place in Jan 2013 and went for 52 months afterwards. Thus, about 15K per year but it was a pretty good amount in the beginning and then petered off down the...

So they had 65K non-refundables and 1.1 million refundables?

I suggest using the search function on this forum. The Meyers has been covered before. The latest one is a new iteration of an old idea.

I wanted to be bilingual. I found the perfect 2nd language. My dad taught me very well.

I think what this demonstrates is that the three wheeler market is a niche. Too many startups use the phrases like "Huge demand" and "Massive Interest". Yet never come up with a number as to what that refers to. There's a huge interest and demand for Brunost. Yet I am willing to guess less than...

Have you tried with the actual product? Maybe it is not as bad as you think. I'd love to test drive a FUV but since they have nowhere close to me to drive one, then I don;t want to spend $1K on an airline ticket, then lodging just to test drive one. They sell in my state and surrounding ones...

I remember the first time I seen a Renault Logan in Mexico. I asked myself, "Why did that guy put his name on the rear of the car and do such a good job at it?" After seeing more, I determined that someone decided at Renault that was a good name for a cheap Mexican sedan. Last year I even rented...

If it's on the internet then it's true. Nikola Trucks were able to move back in 2018. They even made a video and posted it on the internet. Thus it was ready to ship to customers.

I just open up a website, read the bold print and cool looking pics. If you notice, everyone is happy when they drive an Aptera, no disgruntaled drivers. The bold print specs have to be true or they would never post them. Isn't that how it works?

I seen that too.. They better call Paul as he's in the area and can get them started on his three wheeler. His gives 84 mpg and only costs $7450. That beats everything including Teslas. I know, as I read the specs on the internet, thus it's true.

Interesting to be critical of the Vanderhall or any vehicle without a test drive experience.

Also, if you ever owned a Jeep and took the doors off, then drove it in the rain, you still get wet. When that other guy going the other way hits a puddle and it splashes you from the side, you get wet. Like here yesterday, rain and 30mph winds. Thus getting wet. Plus, many do not want to put on...

So, at $25K, it's affordable? Why not just buy something else for that price? We know that the Elio was never going to sell at that price and then Sondors was another pie in the sky idea that the CEO figured it out pretty quick, thus ditched the project. Even Vanderhall stopped making their EV...

You can go 1000 miles in the Aptera between recharges. Just parking it for a day not plugged in, gives you 40 miles. Then it's faster than a Lambo and you can camp out of it. Much better than any Tesla.

So, now onto production? When is that going to happen?

I agree. The cheapest things here in the US come with lots of bells and whistles. Thus people use that as the benchmark for what they want to buy. Price point does play into the factor because if you make something cheap enough, you can accept less. Thus the reason why back in the day, they made...

So the aftermarket created full doors yet the CEO of Arcimoto says they need to do a redesign of the chassis? That confirms that the company spent money on side projects and not on the full doors. Where do you buy these full doors and what's the cost? That's a deal changer for many.

Remember, interest is one thing, actual sales is another. What I find is that when you get into the details, then the interest becomes less when it comes to a FUV. Limited sales/service area, the price, the door situation, charging and then the range. It's obvious by the company numbers, they...

Yes. The issue is, what is the demand for the product. It's a play toy. Not an everyday vehicle. There are people that will use them everyday and force the issue for things like, "You don't need doors" but as we all know, many want them no matter what the handful say. Even with the supply chain...
