If turning heads everywhere you go sounds exciting, the FUV by Arcimoto is certainly worth considering. This three-wheeled electric vehicle caters to such a niche market that you're guaranteed to be the center of attention whenever you take it for a ride.
Short for "Fun Utility Vehicle," the FUV is classified as an autocycle, meaning it's a blend of a car and motorcycle that doesn't meet typical automotive standards. 
As of 2022, the FUV is only available in Arizona, California, Florida, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington. Depending on which state you ride the FUV in, a motorcycle license or helmet might be required. 
The FUV sports a partially-enclosed body with tandem seating and power-assist handlebars. Two motors power the vehicle, offering a combined horsepower of 77. The single-speed transmission and Lithium-Ion battery give the FUV a top speed of 75 mph and a maximum range of 100 miles. 


The FUV by Arcimoto is a fun, eco-friendly, three-wheeled vehicle that will change the way you feel about driving around town.

Currently, there are only 22 Arcimoto FUVs on the road. The company has received 4,128 preorders, which require customers to put down a $100 refundable deposit. This could translate into $70 million in revenue, which currently exceeds the company’s own market cap of $40 million.
