The Aptera looks like it just rolled off a SciFi movie. It’s three wheeled and streamlined to squeeze every last mile out its 13-kilowatt-hour lithium ion battery. A hundred mile range is what they are guaranteeing, and that is with two adults and the AC running. Even though it has front wheel drive, I wouldn’t want to drive this compact trike in any sort of snow or ice. I’m probably not the first person to think this, because the initial roll out will in California, followed by Florida and Texas. The list on this will probably run no less than $30-35K and probably be over $40K.
If it starts flirting with $45K, it will be close to the low end prices of the Tesla Type S, which is an electric luxury sedan. The Aptera is a compact with a big trunk.
