The folks at Arcimoto would like to sell you a three-wheeled car. You know. The Future as depicted in that mediocre movie everyone feels so proud to quote whenever future-tech is made real in the 21st century.
On August 12 he crashed our servers when he tweeted to the world (or at least the 600,000 of them that follow him on Twitter) about our vehicle. Just a week later, Actor Nathan Fillion and Castle co-star Jon Huertas flew up to our little city of Eugene early Saturday to kick the tires and take our latest prototype out on the road.
Browncoats and Castle fans are familiar with the driver and rider of the Arcimoto pictured above. Check out Fillion’s Yfrog photostream if you want more photos of a celebrity showboating prototype green cars. You’ll have to scan back about a month from this post.

The generation 5 Pulse prototype will represent the first “product” prototype in the Pulse family. We aim to have it on the road for testing for the finals of the Cleantech Open business competition in mid-November (we are currently a semi-finalist from the Pacific Northwest region).
