It is unfortunate that the company did not make it and went out of business. The Aptera was a Great little electric car. It had an unbelievable drag coefficient, it had a great range of 80 miles per charge, it was sexy, it was sporty, it was very capable of reaching and maintaining high way speeds [ 80 mph top speed ] a great little electric car. Maybe ahead of its time, maybe just ahead of the free money from the Government that would have gotten them up and running. Jay Leno liked the car so much that he bought one for his collection. Jay says that he does not collect cars, he collects technology. This car was a break through in the development of the electric car.
Never doubt that a small group of dedicated people can change the world, indeed it is the only thing that ever has.
