Last year, I had a chance to visit Aptera and take a ride in its prototype vehicles. It was a fun experience, andvideo, I probably could have had a lot more fun joking around with the staff.
The Model S weighs around 5,000 pounds, and the Hummer EV weighs over 9,000 pounds. The Aptera? Only 2,000 pounds. With the 3 hub motors and such little weight, it’s actually a very fast vehicle. So, no, it’s no Toyota Prius that’s going to anger people as you hypermile it onto the freeway. Economic no longer has to mean slow like it did back in the day with the 3-cylinder Geo Metros I still like to bag on.
One of the big fears people have about aerodynamically-efficient vehicles is whether it would be safe and whether the wind would blow it around. Of course, Rich asked that question. In both cases, the answer is that it’s safe. It’s got a very hard shell that the vehicle’s occupants sit inside of, and it’s aerodynamically-efficient on the sides, so even a passing semi-truck won’t blow it around. It doesn’t have big, flat sides like many vehicles do.
