A three-wheeled electric car designed by Eugene entrepreneurs will be unveiled this week.
Eugene-based Arcimoto is set to reveal a prototype of its three-wheeled electric vehicle, the Pulse, this week in downtown Portland.
If all goes to plan, customers will be lining up to post $500 deposits on the first Pulses, which are set to roll off the production line about this time next year, said Erik Stafl, Arcimoto’s 23-year-old CEO.
With the prototype in place, the company hopes to secure up to $10 million in investor funding, open the production facility somewhere in the Eugene-Springfield area, and employ 30 to 40 employees to build about 200 to 300 vehicles in the first year, Stafl said.
