Germans are turning their backs on Tesla: according to a recent survey by T-Online, in which more than 100,000 people took part, 94 percent of respondents would not buy a vehicle from the US car manufacturer. Only 3 percent could still imagine opting for a Tesla model. These figures are a blow to the brand, which was once regarded as a symbol of innovation and sustainability.

 

## The image crash of an e-car pioneer

 

Elon Musk, once a celebrated tech visionary, has plunged Tesla into a crisis with his polarizing political positions and radical statements. More and more former fans are turning away, celebrities are demonstratively leaving the company and sales figures in Germany are declining. In 2024, sales fell by 41 percent - while the overall market for e-cars grew.

 

But what does this mean for the future of electromobility? One thing is clear: the desire for environmentally friendly, economical and practical [e-vehicles](/en) remains. And this is where innovative alternatives come into play.

 

## ARI Bruni - the clever alternative

 

[ARI Motors](/en) offers the perfect solution for anyone who wants electric mobility but doesn't fancy expensive, large and image-tainting vehicles: the [ARI Bruni](/en/electric-cars/ari-bruni>). This compact electric car is not only significantly cheaper than a Tesla, but also smaller, more maneuverable and more suitable for everyday use. Ideal for city traffic, goodbye parking problems!

 

With low energy consumption, high efficiency and practical features, the [ARI Bruni](/en/electric-cars/ari-bruni) offers everything that modern drivers could wish for. So anyone who values sustainable mobility and is looking for an intelligent, flexible and cost-saving alternative should take a closer look at the ARI Bruni. Because while Tesla is losing approval, the [ARI Bruni](/en/electric-cars/ari-bruni) is gaining new fans.

Germans are turning their backs on Tesla: according to a recent survey by T-Online, 94 percent of respondents would not buy a vehicle from the US car manufacturer. ARI Motors offers an alternative with ARI Bruni.

More and more Germans don't want a Tesla - ARI Bruni offers an affordable alternative

Yes, the ARI Motors electric vehicles have energy recovery while driving. However, a fundamental distinction must be made between the general recuperation of every electric motor and the recuperation brake in some electric vehicles. Because recuperation is often understood to mean the recuperation brake.

Additional electronic as well as mechanical components are necessary for the recuperation brake. Vehicles with recuperation brakes can basically only be driven with the accelerator pedal after a certain period of "getting used to". To brake, you take your foot off the accelerator early and can only accelerate and brake the vehicle with one pedal. The energy gain through recuperation is higher in urban areas than on overland trips and, depending on the vehicle model and experience with this technology, is a realistic 4-8 kilometers additional range per 100 kilometers.

With the ARI 458, ARI Motors has deliberately omitted these mechanical and electronic necessities for a recuperation brake in view of the cost-benefit calculation. In this way, the vehicle can be offered more cheaply without having any disadvantages in terms of range. This is why the ARI 458 only uses recuperation when the vehicle is rolling, if the movement in the motor generates energy that then flows back into the battery. However, here too the energy gain is so small that you shouldn't rely on this additional range when planning your trip.

In general, with electric vehicles as with combustion engines, the motto is that noticeably longer ranges are only possible through anticipatory and economical driving.


Do ARI Motors electric vehicles have recuperation?

In addition to the industry and trade, more and more municipalities are discovering the advantages of the agile and practical [ARI 458 electric light van](/en/light-electric-vans) from ARI Motors. For example, the municipal works of Demmin in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania has integrated an [ARI 458 Tipper](/en/light-electric-vans/ari-458/tipper) with a lattice box into its fleet. The municipality has committed itself to reducing CO2 emissions and has put a biogas plant into operation, for example. Our environmentally friendly ARI 458 electric transporter fits perfectly with the image of the forward-looking public utility company.

 

The [ARI 458 Tipper](/en/light-electric-vans/ari-458/tipper) is particularly suitable for gardening and landscaping as well as municipal technology, some of the main services of Stadtwerke Demmin. Equipment and materials for the maintenance of the green areas can be conveniently transported and unloaded with the manually hydraulically tiltable loading area with dimensions of up to 155 cm in length and 125 cm in width. The 4-part lattice box is also practical for disposing of leaves and other materials that by no means only have to be of plant nature. The 4 lashing eyes also come in handy here, with which bulky objects can be secured for transport.

 

In order to give the vehicle an official exterior, the [ARI 458 Tipper](/en/light-electric-vans/ari-458/tipper) was provided with an orange rotating beacon and red and white stickers. So everyone can see that the municipality itself is on the move here and is doing something for the appearance and infrastructure of the city. Because the [ARI 458 light electric van](/en/light-electric-vans) is also suitable for maintenance work or regular checking of infrastructure points within a municipality. In this way, the important checkpoints can be passed without the residents being bothered by engine noise and diesel exhaust fumes. This creates a progressive combination of environmental and citizen friendliness, which may soon find its way into your community. Just contact us at info@ari-motors.com.

**Warranty period:**

 

The warranty period for your ARI electric vehicle corresponds to the current statutory provisions and begins on the date of purchase. This is recorded in the handover protocol.

 

The period of warranty varies from country to country. In the European Union, a warranty of 2 years of the vehicle as well as the battery is standard. The modern LiFePO4 battery, however, comes with a longer warranty period, namely 4 years or 60.000 km, depending on what is reached first.

 

**Scope of warranty claims:**

 

In the event of warranty damage, we will of course take care of the repair of your ARI electric vehicle. To do this, we repair faulty parts or replace them.

 

Important: Further claims such as withdrawal from the purchase contract, the provision of a replacement vehicle or the payment of damages **cannot** be derived from this.

 

**Requirements for warranty claims:**

 

In order to be able to assert warranty claims for your ARI electric vehicle, it is necessary that you:

 

- have necessary service measures carried out promptly and professionally,
- comply with prescribed inspection intervals + have it documented
- that maintenance and service work has been carried out in accordance with ARI Motors regulations.


 

**Special case: Missed or improper maintenance**

 

Even if your ARI electric vehicle has not been (properly) serviced, it is possible to enforce warranty claims. However, only if existing damage to your vehicle is not due to improper or lack of maintenance.

 

**Tip:**

Further information on guarantee and warranty claims can be found in the operating instructions for your ARI electric vehicle. You can download these [here](/en/downloads).
