Throughout the 60-day pilot program, Arcimoto vehicles will be tested by staff located at City Hall and the Marine Safety Division.
“We hope to demonstrate the practical benefits of affordable, small-footprint electric vehicles for a variety of everyday uses that will save the City time and money while furthering their sustainability goals, which are substantial,” said CEO Mark Frohnmayer.
