look up the cessna centurian center section it looks like aptera funny huh. na the crash energy tranfer is far greater here cessna proves this by droppin them from the sky.. na your safer here HOWEVER this baby will burn like any other car now the windows can be rolled down to crawl out . . na the carbon fraim is still sound..
I like this car's design a lot, but only 100 miles of electric range for a car that size is an embarrassment, and two entries have forty miles or more MPGe on it. The FVT, X-Tracer, and Li-Ion cars have all have better range. Good enough for a 50 mile round trip and extra.
All of them, including the Aptera, would make marvelous hybrids and I think the Aptera 2H will have a good chance in the world market as a PHEV. Batteries still need to improve for all-electrics to become truly viable.
Did Marques REALLY say that 10% of Americans want to own an Aptera???? I actually have a low Reservation number as an early adopter, but even the strongest advocates will tell you that he is embellishing the appeal a bit. If they land 1% of American automobile sales in 5 years, they will be doing awesome. I mean, if they manage to deliver MY Aptera within 5 years.... ; )
@wcabdefense He said "at least 1 in every 10 said it was outstanding". That's just based on liking the design, so that equates to a comfortable potential market. Do they believe that they'll have 10% market share? They aren't saying that at all.
@john4kc OUTSTANDING "Standing out among others of its kind; prominent." Well perhaps everyone can agree that it is outstanding. Whether or not you want to drive one, that is another issue. Go Aptera.
The problem is that it is still classified as a motorcycle and therefore in most states you have to wear a helmet to drive.
