Arcimoto recently announced its new electric utility vehicle, the MUV (Modular Utility Vehicle).

Arcimoto describes the MUV as “a new category of EVs” and is built on the company’s FUV platform.

The MUV offers customizable bed configurations to support medium- to light-duty load capacities. The company says the MUV offers flexible solutions for industries such as government and municipalities, homebuilders, manufacturing and warehousing, universities, agriculture and landscape, construction and delivery services.

The vehicle can be equipped with doors and side rails, and the back can be fitted for a flatbed or cargo box. The back can also include pre-drilled holes for tie-down D-rings.

Specs of the MUV include:

  • Top speed of 75 mph
  • Up to 102 city mile range
  • 77 brake horsepower (bhp)
  • Maximum payload of 300 pounds

The company says the MUV will be available for purchase at an MSRP starting at $23,000.
