I want #aptera to succeed

@AkaSci
I remember, a long time ago, when we started to have fuel efficiency standards. The Japanese hired well educated engineers to solve the fuel efficiency problem, the US #bigCorp hired lawyers and lobbyist to go to DC to have our laws changed.

It is still going on today and in all areas of business.

Want a present day example.
our gov gives more grants to bigCorp for 4 wheel electric cars but not to #aptera which has a well designed 3 wheel electric car....because it has 3 wheels.

🚗☀️BREAKING: A vehicle with wheels and a solar panel drives 300 miles! 😱 Join the cult of now! Invest in a future where the sun saves us from pesky gas stations. 🌞💸

I'm trying to compare the 100 whr/mile goal of #aptera with my #ebike which is costing about 20whr/mile. When I'm riding it, I'm moving about 120 kg.

Does anyone know the estimated curb weight of the aptera with 400 mile range rated batteries?

#aptera, quote
"One of our biggest targets is achieving an industry-record 100 Wh/mile energy consumption, making solar mobility possible in ways never before seen in passenger vehicles. This coastdown test proves we are well on our way to meeting that goal. "

I really like the idea that we may have a EV that can charge itself at the rate of 40 miles/day.
so the charging rate is 4,000 watts/day
at 6hr of sun/day that is approx 670watts of #solar on the car.

Anyone want to check my math

#aptera, a new #electricCar
, just announced a cool real world test for electrc cars that anyone can do.
The coast down test;
TD;DR
coastdown was two miles long.

In a real-world validation test, Aptera coasted from 60 mph to a complete stop in over three minutes. According to our calculations, that’s significantly more than any other vehicle on the road today. What does this mean? Less resistance. More range. And a step closer to solar-powered freedom.

@RadicalGraffiti
another way to deal with tesla is to support other corps;
Check out the story of #Aptera

aptera.us/
I have been watching them for years and the coup in the USA has made me want to invest and join the 50,000 other folks on the waiting list.

Its a well engineered solution to the tesla problem and was designed before the tesla turned nazi problem.

Its a corp that has a good story and has a ev that is designed from the ground up to be energy efficient.

's user interface.
A quick presentation without a single word.
That's what a user interface should be like: easy to use through intuition!
