I'm with you, but neither is the Arcimoto for me, unless it has the cargo box, capacity of 400-500lbs in said box or open bed, enclosed for winter travel, and then I'd still have the problem of Transport Canada saying I could keep it after inspection, insurance and Ontario giving me plates.
Man, my face is red :oops::eek: to those that liked my previous post, MagicDragon, ehwatt and Maurtis I apologise, but its a good thing that Transport Canada regs and me being broke could have saved me some grief. I'm saddened because I was looking forward to getting that electric mini-pickup...
That already exists, if you have a motorcycle licence {British spelling} and since you're already in the US, you won't have the red tape I do.

You're thinking of that old Renault, seen on the Mr.Bean show. The reason that was tippy was their placement of the engine above the lone front wheel. ZEV's electric trikes have the majority of their mass, batteries and motors, at the rear axle area or behind the driver as in the T3-1 and...
If I may be allowed to interject, why wait?

I don't work for ZEV, just wish I had the cash, blew $3000 cutting down a troublesome oak tree. So maybe next year, still not going to stop me from going to the Toronto Motorcycle Show on Feb 15-17. Have...
They've been called snowmobiles since day one, ever since Joseph-Armand Bombardier developed his truck-like version back in the 1930s.

On the other hand, if you're one of those families who insist on being a two-car{or more} family, you could do worse than a T3-5D, for the price, in the city or suburbs and keep the gas guzzler for leaving town. If you need 55mph speed, talk to them. Once I find out Transport Canada's and...
However, the LS-218 is still on a reservation basis, and bloody expensive. ZEV bikes and utility trikes are available NOW.
That was my point and the range extenders are already on the 1500 LB. capacity pickup trucks.
Just got an E-mail from the developer.

Now true, you guys are not going to love their enclosed vehicles, just yet. You want cool, like the Elio, Solo or Arcimoto. They are working on new models but if you do have an 'M' endorsement on your licence {spelled the CDN way} you may be interested in their range of motor-bikes. Currently...
Well, the bureaucrats here in US and Canada are going to have to change their mindset to allow a return to affordable micro-vehicles, aka
crash tests or accept race-car like crash cages. Many designs out there won't or don't pass Transport Canada scrutiny. More regs than I can shake a stick at.
I change my mind, after a UK test drive, I'm in favour and prefer a Dual Clutch Transmission Or DCT, over any CVT now.
There are two models of Bikes, one in scooter form and one in 'regular form' that are really the same engine and frame
but with differing amounts of plastic.
The Integra and...
Well, I was hoping to register one as a motorcycle but here's the scoop;

Covered with a hard shell, and no straddling, so its' a car and will need to ruin its' lines with a front plate.
