Aptera Sun-Powered Transportation

Originally designed in 2005 as a hybrid, that version never made it to market. The Aptera came roaring back in 2019 with a similar shape and a cutting-edge, all-electric drive design.

Aptera now features integrated solar panels generating 700 watts of capacity and harvesting 4.4 kwh per day in a sunny climate like southern California. That translates to up to 40 miles of juice without ever having to plug it in. In a less sunny environment like Ireland, you can still expect to get up to 20 miles of power per day from the Sun. It also sports conventional plug-in capability.

The 3-wheel futuristic design boasts a .13 drag coefficient making it the most aerodynamic vehicle you can buy. That in combination with its lightweight makes it both economical and fast. The all-wheel drive version takes you from 0-60 in 3.5 seconds while offering 1000 miles of range with the largest battery pack configuration.

This video shows Jay Leno taking the alpha version for a ride* on his show, Jay Leno’s Garage. The newest version, gamma, was unveiled at the Fully Charged Live event in San Diego on September 10, 2022
