Eldorado 57,688 #1 Posted December 11, 2020 The Aptera car is powered by a combination of solar and electric energy – what the company refer to as its Never Charge technology – meaning drivers would be able to complete average journeys without having to stop for more power at charging stations. According to the San Diego-based company, the average American drives 29 miles per day. Therefore, depending on where the owner lives and how much they drive, they "may never need to charge Aptera at all".

Golden Duck 12,406 #4 Posted December 15, 2020 (edited) It doesn't look like a "high-school eco-marathon project.". Right! Not except for "high-school eco-marathon projects" that look like the Aptera. https://www.google.com/search?q=solar+powered+racing&rlz=1C1GGRV_enAU862AU862&sxsrf=ALeKk01byOWee5ZHiuUZCY7smcUyGp-MMQ:1607992671123&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjLp9q_387tAhX9zzgGHauDBasQ_AUoAnoECAcQBA&biw=1920&bih=969 Edited December 15, 2020 by Golden Duck 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
