    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.

    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.

    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._

    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%.

    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.

    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.

    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.

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).
