    I hope they get it to production and it's an awesome car but they are over claiming the solar collection capacity you still need a solar car port to charge it up...

    @user-jj2yc2hz6c 2 дня назад

    There are so many flaws by just looking at it, first, make the whole body solar, not just a few tiles, whole body with no waste of space, so if at beach, open both doors for maximum sun power. Secondly, you would want the main brightness of headlights come from the fenders, so from a long distance, the opposite direction drivers see the white bright headlights on the fenders, in addition to the currently designed headlights as fog lights. Thirdly, make repairs possible by having dealerships in every major city, with fully functional parts and service departments, not just sales dept What if the front wheel hits a pothole? What’s the cost of the wheel assembly? Thousands and thousands…… if available

    It's not as sexy as solar charging, but the extreme efficiency of this car also means you can get so much more out of public level 1/2 chargers. Imagine stopping for lunch for an hour and adding 60 miles of range for free. Or add more than 100 miles overnight off a regular household outlet. Combined with solar, that means you can go almost anywhere and pay almost nothing to charge.

    It's not true that the gas engine never drives the wheels. There's a planetary gear system to engage the engine to the wheels when the battery is depleted and you're doing 70mph or over. The extra complexity was deemed worth it for significant fuel efficiency gains under that specific circumstance. If you camp in it, there's a popular easy mod to add a 110v socket and inverter under the trunk floor, up to 1500w. The Volt has a lot of spare power to give without draining the starter battery, so long as the car stays on. You can see that on my channel, it's tremendously useful for doing energy intensive tasks outdoors like running a bucket heater for a camping shower, induction cooktops, basically no limits

    youtube.com/@ariaselectronics?si=Z9KPUBd2alI9H3E2 Good Job! I have had a 2012 Volt for over 3 years, 160k miles and 28-30 miles per charge. I will make a video from my car. Someone crashed my car and instead of tinkering and painting, I decided to buy another one with the same problem with the hybrid battery. I'll put mine's battery inside it. In the video I will show the error codes that the battery in poor condition presents, also the test of each cell and the comparison with the battery that is in good condition. So you don't miss the video when I upload it, subscribe to my channel. I have other general electronics and mechanics jobs and some interesting ones on smart keys or proximity keys.

    Good design about the airbag in Aptera. We all hate those airbags desings for regular cars, they are so difficult to diagnostic and replace.

    25:06 Reminder that that prototype is limited to HALF the power of the production version and no power brakes. The production version will of course have traction control and ABS. If ROBERT from Aging Wheels thinks a 3 wheel car is stable, it is, just look at how he drives.

    I still own my 2012 Volt which I purchased in Nov. 2011. I still get 33 miles in winter and 38 miles in summer. When new, I would get over 50 miles range at least 4 or 5 times in summer. I own an electric but I don't think I will ever get rid of this Volt. 33 gals. of gas in the last 18,800 miles.

    @Nissan_Nerd 3 месяца назад

    A couple months ago 3 BRAND NEW Codas from Mullen's left over stock ended up in a Los Angeles junkyard. All cars were complete with all the drive components, and were only missing the batteries. I was expecting those EV motors to be pulled quick, and the remaining SoCal Coda owners to save a lot of the parts. Sadly after visiting the cars on the last day before they headed for the crusher, they were mostly intact. This made me curious about the brand, and I then found your channel. Great vid!

    So it's a plug-in hybrid. NOT an electric car.

    • @ralphalvarado4770
      @ralphalvarado4770 2 месяца назад

      It is a pure series hybrid. The most efficient type of plug in hybrid. Very few ever built. I've used 33 gallons of gas in the last 18,800 miles because it is my second car. I've owned it 12 years and will probably never get rid of it. The new Prius is a series parallel hybrid. Uses more gas.

    • @ralphalvarado4770
      @ralphalvarado4770 2 месяца назад

      Sorry. A series plug in hybrid is always driven by the E motor. When out of E, the generator spins up and provides electricity to the E motor. The generator never drives the car.

  • @xymaryai8283
    @xymaryai8283 3 месяца назад

    i'll be honest, i am frustrated its all touchscreen controls, but i don't blame Aptera, i accept its probably the right choice for a new EV, but if i could modify the dash to be more mechanical and tactile, and a more sensible vent, i would. its cool it goes around the display, but its also just a step too awkward.

    • @ElectrekGarage

    How does it fare at a drive up ATM? Or a fast food drive thru? The gush puppies don't give a reality check on all the needs of a car. Aptera needs critical reviews, by unbiased teat drivers.

    • @ElectrekGarage
      @ElectrekGarage 4 месяца назад

      Holds up exactly like any other car, the window is a bit smaller, but Aptera has shown that normal drinks can fit through the window like normal!

    • @sactojlm
      @sactojlm 4 месяца назад

      So you don't think the front wheel well poses an obstacle? Does the wheel retract? Again, think critically given the way the car is built.

    • @sactojlm
      @sactojlm 4 месяца назад

      Look at video at .21. The wheels extend far out from the drivers window. No way you could get close enough to the ATM or drive through window. You're so invested in this that you can't think rationally. Calling Consumer Reports!

    • @ElectrekGarage
      @ElectrekGarage 4 месяца назад

      @sactojlm ATM machines would definitely be an issue. Although, thinking critically, I haven't gone to a drive up ATM or know any one who has gone to a drive up ATM in forever. Think critically, everything is online now. And if you do need to use an ATM, just thinking critically, you could walk up to one.

    • @sactojlm
      @sactojlm 4 месяца назад

      I guess nobody ever needs cash or fast food at a drive thru window. So glad Aptera recognizes this is a non issue. Or maybe they'll build an extending tray from the window.
