Hi jack

The porduction ready aptera will have roll-down windows.

Have you seen a reduction in range in the roadster?

Nissan have almost doubled the capacity of their battery, and they use prismatic cells.

AC Propulsion, and Teslas idea of using of the shelf batteries is flawed, some things dont scale-up very well. As far as I know, all other companies are using prismatics, GM, Nissian, Aptera etc

7926645

There IS no production ready Aptera. There apparently never will be. The company founders are "out" and unless a government "bailout" loan appears, it is most likely the end of Aptera.

Pioneers - you can identify them pretty easily. They are usually found face down on the side of the road with arrows in their backs.

Seriously, you ought to start your own company. Honestly, i think a bunch of you guys should get together with calm heads, the right people, and modest budget, it can be done. What kills the electric car i think is price. Tesla is overpriced, i think their cars look nice, but not for me, and most of the population. You can't have rich people without poor people. I'd rather spend $50,000 on 3 like new saturns that i can covert latter into EVs.

Thank You so much for your very wise and excellent video Sr.

I'd prefer just 4 motors inside the car, not in the wheels. It'd be great for 4WD.

Jack Rickard has cut a classic with this video.
He is well thought out in what he says and makes the right call each time.But the real star of this movie is the car, a 1957 356 Speedster Porsche. Middle of the road and able to charm just about anyone with it's fiber glass body and amazing elegance. I would take this newly-built classic Porsche any day before the Tesla Roadster. That is saying a lot.
This movie serves as an eye opener to all about the road ahead and what it can be.Wonderful!

do you have the energizer bunny under that hood : )

Pretty much. 24kWh in a 2190 lb car is actually pretty much an energizer bunny on steroids.

wow great car and nice conversion.

i like your ride a lot better than the goverment motors(GM)chevy volt.who wants to pay 40 grand for something that makes a pinto look like a caddy?your ride is so cool.

the world needs more people like you and less people that throw sticks at people like you.

have you seen the lincvolt neil young is working on?its on youtube check it out.

many thanks to you and people like you for trying to make the world a better cleaner place.
