Arcimoto has signed its first rental franchise, which will open in the Florida Keys and be operated by Key West-based franchisee R-Key Moto.

Located at the Stock Island Marina Village, the new fun utility vehicle (FUV) hub location will house 21 FUVs to be used as rental vehicles for tourists and cruise ship passengers to explore Key West. In addition, the FUV hub will share vehicles with the A&B Marina Complex and the Perry Hotel Key West. Guests will be able to rent FUVs directly from the concierge and explore Stock Island and Key West.

The Florida Keys will be the first Arcimoto rental franchise, and the fourth FUV rental location, with partnerships previously announced with Hula Multimodal in San Diego and Encinitas, Calif., as well as with GoCar Tours in San Francisco. In the Arcimoto franchise model, rental franchises will utilize Arcimoto branding and technologies, including the Arcimoto mobile app.
