The Arcimoto almost has it right. They just need to build it similar to a 3 wheel Jeep or SUV that can handle some dirt/gravel country roads & rough city pot holed filled streets. Add a full weather enclosure & removable storage compartments on the sides similar to saddle bags on an adventure motorcycle. Now you have a 2 seat vehicle that can be used just like a car year round. Even using a gas Honda NC750X engine setup. It'd get at least 65 mpgs & a top speed over 100 mph.
Love it! I have a small electric scooter/bike & it is amazing driving. Solar mini car sounds perfect in Greece that we have sunshine almost all year round!!!
As an owner of a 2-seat mobility scooter that has two 12v lithium batteries: • having solar would be fantastic. • having REMOVABLE batteries to recharge inside is an important theft benefit (my charger stolen twice). BUT... what no one talks about is what is the life expectancy of these batteries? And the subsequent cost of replacing them. My scooter battery replacement is $500 every year. Not cheap.
The best things about the Squad are the price and the crash protection. I can see how it might suit a few applications, but an electrically assisted bicycle or an enclosed trike could fulfill most of those. Only those customers who haven't the energy to pedal would really benefit from such a slow car. To be fair, the self charging aspect is important, for convenience, economy and the environment, though all EV batteries require vast amounts of resources and energy to produce them. The smaller the battery the less so, I guess. It's interesting that the 4-battery model raises the price by almost 50%.
I'm in El Paso TX where the sun is out almost every day...perfect for the solar panels. Wouldn't need a drivers license or to register it if the top speed stays about less than 25mph...whichnis like an electric bike. You can drive on the shoulder or bike lane. I saw some with heat and a/c!
These are great. Here in Hong Kong there is quite a lot of sun, so I think they would be ideal for use by many here. The swappable batteries was my idea years ago. Having to charge up is time-wasting and big heavy batteries are hard for many to handle. Perhaps some sort of trolly could be designed for easy carrying to your home charge point. Or you could just swap a drained battery for a charged one at a fuel station.
I am like millions of Americans who would buy a version of this with a solar top but our politicians in the US are deep in the pockets of the big 3 auto makers.
The costs and pricing will be down by 1/6th -1/11th of the current rates if manufactured in India. Plus the local market in India is thrice as that of Europe
I'm glad they're developing these. A major improvement in the design would be to *give the cars higher clearance* for speed bumps, etc. Perhaps that can be fixed by just making the tires & wheel area bigger. Higher clearance makes cars more versatile & nimble. Cities in rainier climates would prefer cars that kept their doors on _with windows._
Definitely perfect in a golf cart community, it's about time somebody put the overpriced golf cart & SxS manufacturers on notice. Their pricing is obnoxious
When they design the cargo sections of new vehicles, they should think about the shapes that can fit in them. 9m2 means nothing if your cargo is 50cm too long for the space. People don't just carry shopping and square boxes - they carry tools and ladders and garden plants and musical instruments. Flexible space is required with optional support and cushioning for fragile items. Some roof racks might even be needed.
With the sun and the wind I will travel forever. . . since I consume electricity to travel, why not recover some of it using a mini or micro wind generator, with vertical axis, placed externally somewhere in the car and a system of solar panels? These systems will deliver energy. . forever. (I mean: a moving object, like a car, will create a vortex in the air, the wind. When it hits the wind turbine, it will generate electricity that will recharge the batteries).
@@philipmitchelmore7293 Yes, but city traffic flows typically at 40 to 45mph, not 28. Tokyo would be good since the speed limit in cities is 27mph or 40kmh.
Здравствуйте , машинка хорошая , увеличить дольность хода на одной зарядке аккумуляторов, и ограничения скорости до 50 км/ч, увеличить багажник в1,5 - 2 раза, стекла на дверях сделать раздвижными - элементарно и будет супер. Цену немного снизить до 3 т.
The Nimbus looks like a side-by-side copy of the tandem Carver leaning trike. The carver comes in two versions: electric and gasoline power train. You're pretty good at compiling videos to take on almost every taste. My challenge to you is to compile a video of people who are taking A.I. art to make a real world version of it for personal and/or commercial use. Why treat machine learning as the enemy of creativity when it can be seen as the great equalizer for folks who can't draw, paint, or sculpt...but can write cool stories. Or even if they struggle to make a cool story their ideas can be made manifest with typing into a artificial intelligence tool that can bring their imagination to life.
A great idea.....wouldn't mind having one. Would NEVER park nose in between two cars as shown in the video. Would make it impossible for the other cars to get out. I would pass on a doorless vehicle.
Solar City looks good and price seems reasonable. I like the swappable batteries. 28 mph / 45kph -- needs to do minimum 60 kph IMHO. Arcimoto I think has a better understood the north American market for speed and range of an around town car. Eli Zero , again too slow Nimbus - looking good, hope they get to production Cheers
This is so inspiring. The "real" electric car doesn't say me much although I respect Elon Musk. It feels so wrong to move 80 kg human with a 2000 kg construction when green electricity is so precious. The grid can't even handle it if everybody would have one. People will tax the grid soon already with more aircon. However, for the American situation with its long distances, it's hard to come up with a truly elegant solution.

Could you do a video on Brompton folding bikes and ebikes and their trailer/bag attachments? Some of them fold up small and light enough you can just take them as carry on luggage!
This car has no chance in the US, we are too busy buying big gas guzzlers with the undisputed goal of helping our adversaries in the Middle East buy better weapons to fight us. True story.
This should be promoted more in bigger cities. Would save a lot of space and would help keep air clean.
Hello Igor Pundzin, thank you for watching!
i absolutely love this micro car and would buy one when it hit the market !! awesome
You have to make a preorder, I already did.
Pretty fancy golf cart.
This is exactly what I need & want thank you for sharing
This car is perfect for me, I do not go far or fast!!!!!
Me too!!
Then order one, I did.
If it could go 60mph I would buy it
I CANT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THIS CAR AND REASONABLE TOO!!

Great car for south Florida 👍💯

Imp wonder if we w get enough here in nf ny
Affordable, cheap to run, looks nice. Ticks a lot of boxes!
I WILL BUY THIS TODAY!!
Same bro same
If they want these to work, lobby so they can be driven without a license.
biyy it
And you will soon realise it's about as much use as a wet paper bag !

Crash protection?
@@pogo1140 the roll cage and front and rear crash structures supposedly give it a safety factor above its class.
@@Zoco101 Above it's class which is a golf cart so no safety standards beyond a 15mph collision?
@@pogo1140 I think it's class 6 and is designed for 25mph. It will come with optional doors too. They're going to make a class 7 model as well.

You're wrong. Being a four-wheeler, it would be classified as an NEV, which requires license, registration and insurance.
Its beautiful i need one 🥰 specially solar powered the best car ever the sun shines every single day
Not where I live,but every single day they are up there spraying tons of aluminium to block out the sun!
This car will be great for Guyana South America hope to see this there soon
This will be popular when gas goes up even more.
I hope the gas companies have to eat their gas!!!!😆
yes itvwill
i hope, most car drivers will soon use those kind of vehicles.
I would have thought this RUclipsr would have mentioned Aptera out of Carlsbad CA as another option of Solar cars going into production this December.

Hi cynic150, I 100% agree. Thanks for watching!
Not being the owner has also the advantage that one doesn't has to worry about vandalism or theft. That is in Hong Kong perhaps no problem.
2:00 I am really looking forward for this car, have ordered it today 😀
I am like millions of Americans who would buy a version of this with a solar top but our politicians in the US are deep in the pockets of the big 3 auto makers.
Most definitely!!

I really like this thing if it had a side panels for the rain and if it had a little heater in defroster what you gotta have
would like to know if its doable in winter conditions?
Awesome model

A lot of cities allow e-scooters, but this car would be more practical in winter.

At 28mph speeds that’s more for European city streets in town than in the US. It’d be a road block.
It’s meant for a city

What about when there's no sun whatsoever for months?

They have been promising the FUV for well over 10 years I think, and it's still not available.
Some times life happens and it does not get done on a time line!!!!
The FUV is already available for sale in some US states: they made ~300 in 2021, and are on track to make 1000 in 2022. Their goal for 2023 is 7000
I love it I will buy if it available in north Cyprus
Any idea to release in India it suits good to climate
Such a car muat be supported
