Arcimoto delivered 41 customer vehicles and produced 41 vehicles for commercial pilot programs and marketing use. The company also produced 20 rental vehicles, and now totals 109 rental vehicles across Arcimoto rental locations and partner rental locations.

Additionally, Tilting Motor Works produced 40 TRiO three-wheel conversion kits and completed delivery of 35 TRiO kits to customers, also the highest production quarter in Tilting Motor Works history.
