I think at least some cars should have a deployable solar canopy like the Eindhoven vehicles. Look at the Stella Terra. It just makes sense in my opinion to get the most sun you can.
Couldnt disagree more on the level 2 charging. Apartments, offices, and other places people spend a few hours at need to flood the zone with level 2 chargers. Its so much more convenient than having to sit at a dc fast charger for 30 minutes twice a week. Plus the infrastructure is comically cheaper than dcfc infrastructure.
Good luck convincing landlords
@@TailosiveEVPodcast i actually did at the last apartment i lived at. Chargers are like any other amenity, they convince people to rent at locations and can even create a little revenue for the apartment. Landlords just need to become aware of incentives and demand
@@TailosiveEVPodcast i feel like you guys forgot one of the most important aspects of owning an EV: not having to go out of your way to refuel. We should push for more level 2 charging.
A frunk would not be the deciding factor on selecting an electric vehicle for me!
Totally understandable! Some features are valued more than others.
The interior looks nice, but is that enough to justify buying it over a vehicle that is build on a purpose-build EV-platform, like the Model Y?
Also, if you are a fan of boxy off-roaders, why would you buy this over the Rivian R2 (also build on a purpose build EV platform)?
If you want small for easier city driving, then Aptera eliminates itself with its huge turn radius. Compare it with the cybertruck you thought was too big? You even said more occupants can justify larger cars - Aptera has two so should be much smaller. You don't even follow what your own brains are telling you.
