With the initial model of the Carver One, the company found that what really began the decline for the popularity of the brand was production dependent upon engine supply from Toyota. However, the One model was extraordinarily priced, also, at around $30,000, which could not be justified for the features. 
With the newer Carver models (both the R+ and the S+,) a scooter license or motorcycle license is required (motorcycle for the S+) and the new price point is much more affordable for the kind of commuting solution offered here. 


The Carver acts as a tricycle, but falls under the classification of a scooter or moped. Well designed, and with no real comparable competitors, how does the Carver perform?

Carver

A superb way to traverse the city, the Carver has a fairly barebones interior, but it has all you’ll ever need out of an electric vehicle when it comes to other features. The price point hovering around $10,000 - $14,000 (depending on the model S+, R+, or Cargo) will deter most customers. 
However, for those looking to replace the need of a car, the Carver offers enough range, speed, visibility, and comfort for commuting, grocery shopping, daily needs, and general transport. 


Carver Review

“The Carver, with an electric powertrain, a narrow body with three wheels, and its ability to tilt through corners, is surely the ultimate answer to the challenges of congestion and emissions – [it is also] affordable and fun.”
