    I used to be really exited about aptera, but as the years went by that enthusiasm waned. Their market is basically gone now, since you can get a real electric car for that price nowadays. Plus, after seeing this video from youtuber “wall street milennial” I dont think there is any hope for them left. I dont really like the essay style of that youtuber, but they cite hard, irrefutable data that paints a very clear picture that aptera is just treading water now, they dont have the funds to mass produce these cars, and no hope for further investments. Its sad really.

    i really don’t get this this thing. Maybe it made sense when used EVs were not common, but for less money now you can get an actual electric CAR on the used market. Same range, more capable and comfortable, probably way safer, and from a reputable manufacturer of your choice.
