  • The first molds for Aptera's body have been completed. The experts at CPC Group in Modena, Italy have been working tirelessly alongside us to develop and manufacture these state-of-the-art production tools. Co-CEOs, Chris and Steve, recently traveled to inspect the completed molds first-hand.

The dies are being cast in Modena at CPC and the other suppliers are pretty far along with with order specs. The above is aided massively by $14Million from just the accelerator program so far-I'm proud to be one of the lucky participants.

    I believe that despite the high huddles, and obstacles, that this idea, using the best principals, and designing in efficiency, will not be denied. Investors are spooked by current economic winds, and that has just delayed this dream. The dream machine, aka Aptera is too impactful to be overlooked. I truly think this is the best there is out there, and by several times. Validation of the EPA MPGe, and the crash test results are the final piece. Why wouldn't someone invest in Aptera if it gets 6 times better mileage than a Prius, and sure to be more fun, lots faster, and much larger truck space. Thanks to the Aptera team and hope those whales beach themselves soon! Keep pitching, it will happen, I am completely convinced even without any superpowers.
