x Platform might have different charging options. If you remember, new upgrades are coming to the Arcimoto late this year/early next year that allow faster manufacturing and scalability. The new batteries are part of this upgrade. The new upgraded batteries from Farasis won't give you the option to get faster charging, but new electronics might make it an option.
Currently, the Arcimoto platform only charges at a rate of 3.4 kW. Many vehicles, including ones that charge using a J1772 charging protocol, offer faster charging.
For instance, a 2020 Honda Clarity has a similar battery capacity at 17kWh (Arcimoto has 19.2 kWh) but it charges at a rate of 6.6 kW, nearly twice the Arcimoto. An on board charger with similar charging rate could bring the Arcimoto down to 2.5 hours to fully charge - and that would be very handy for certain longer range trips.
