    The company is in better hands with Mark in a supportive rather than leadership role. He remains as chairman of the board, however, as he should, since he is the largest shareholder and founder. Removing him as CEO, though, is a huge positive for the company.

    This is an astounding scoop Zac! There was SO MUCH good info in this tour. Nicely done! You guys need to do another video to unpack all the golden nuggets Mark and team shared and what it might mean going forward. I heard a bunch of iterative improvements coming very soon across all the products AND the manufacturing processes.

The public needs to know more about a successful American company, using American Labor to build American designed vehicles with American materials. No more made in China stuff! We need to stand on our own feet again and not rely on others to make our products for us. 🏁🏁🚴‍♀🚴‍♀

    This vid did age well. As noted below, Mark was moved from CEO to Chairman and "Chief Vision Officer," whatever that is. 2 days later the company disclosed terrible financials and a cash balance down to $5 million after burning thru $32 million. FUV also further diluted shareholders (including Zac) by issuing another $9 million in shares, which increased the cash balance to $11 million. But since they are only manufacturing 6 units/day and all at a loss, its only a matter of time before more cash is required. The company needs a strategic investor or buyer who can pump in serious cash, rationalize product and production, and turnaround the operation to at least break even.

    • @RikHeijmen
      @RikHeijmen 2 роки тому +5

      The 'specialty' vehicles that the (now removed) CEO and Zac are driving, signal a lack of focus to me. While they were using valuable hours to build these toys for boys, they should have invested this time an effort into restructuring production and securing demand.
      This video doesn't instill confidence at all.

    Interesting news. Mark was removed as CEO on Aug. 4th and the reasons might include the news as reported in the local paper that says ---- Three weeks before Oregon electric vehicle manufacturer Arcimoto removed company founder Mark Frohnmayer as CEO, Eugene police arrested Frohnmayer on suspicion of driving under the influence of intoxicants.
    Officers cited Frohnmayer in downtown Eugene at 10:09 p.m. on July 15, according to Melinda McLaughlin, the a spokesperson for the Eugene Police Department. She said Frohnmayer was driving a three-wheeled motorcycle, similar to the vehicles made by Arcimoto, but she couldn’t say for sure if it was one of the company’s models.

    I really want a FUV. I just can't see paying 21-25k when I can buy a small car for less than that. I have a 1999 single cab Tacoma that I put Maybe 9000 miles a year on, so the FUV would be just a fun thing to drive around town. I really wish them success so that the price drops to where he wants it to be because I would totally pay the around 10-15k. But who knows I have watched almost every youtuber that has talked about the FUV so my interest in it is strong. I might have to shell out the cash. I like the Solo as well because I fell it is more secure as in parking it and walking away in CA and not worrying if someone is messing around with my dash or sitting in my seats. BUT... it's only 1 seat and I need 2. Thanks for the Video. I watched Arcimoto's and was waiting for your side to come out.

      Even just rental vehicle sales could reach 100k per year on a global basis, if not more. Every tropical island and tons of places like Mexico, Brazil, Miami, San Diego, is going to be a profitable rental market for these. Zac recently went to a resort town in Spain that would be great for FUV. Then think about places like Monaco. Denmark. Germany. Greece. Italy. Israel. Even India. Arcimoto getting even 1% of the tuktuk business would mean more than 10k units per year. Deliverator alone could be an investment from Domino's, GrubHub, and even logistics companies for big cities. Having the best tech in a compact package separates FUV from generic competition.

Both banruptcy and no shipped vehicles are extremely dishonest implications based on NO evidence whatsoever. It takes as long as it takes and no informed investor whines on the internet just because he did not get rich fast. Even worse. I abhor stocks and what they have done to the American Dream.
      For me, investing in the company means buying the product which I enjoy very much. I know from first hand experience as a US factory worker that any profits you see come directly from the paychecks and benefits packages of the workers. You greedy self entitled people disgust me. You talk casually about an extremely destructive behavior, assuming that because a few people got rich this way you are just as entitled regardless of your impacts on our lives. Driving ICE vehicles is another destructive habit that is practiced daily as though it is still acceptable. It is not.
