Re:      Atlis Motor Vehicles, Inc; Opinion RE Legality

Dear Mr. Hanchett,

In connection with the Regulation A offering of Class A units of common stock for Atlis Motor Vehicles, Inc, (“the Company”) dated June 1, 2020 (as amended), please accept this letter as my opinion under the laws of the United States of America and the State of Delaware as to the legality of the securities covered by the Offering Circular.

Based upon my review of the Company’s financial situation and Offering Circular, and assuming the accuracy of the Company’s inputs, it is my opinion that under the laws of the State of Delaware that the Class A units of common stock offered will, when sold, be legally issued, fully paid, and non-assessable.

Sincerely,

Jordan Christensen
