Aptera is a SCAM And Hub Motors are another SCAM

I have absolutely no problem with fwd only. The only concerns I have are with battery life and battery safety. Nobody has addressed this yet. Aptera is the only EV vehicle that I'm interested in.

Hub motor is the only motor for the front part. Aptera Wins delay First start ended with bankrupcy Time goes goes and still no aptera It will become critical The three wheeler should be à four wheeler, with much more place in the boot. The form of the egg is on of the best

I hope the hub motor does come later. I do think going with tried and true tech to get off the ground makes the most sense.

Hub mothers are the solid state battery or the fusion energy of motors. I’m sure they will be superior technology employed in mass production someday in the future. (Then again, maybe not!) Waiting for hub motors to go to market is like not implementing solar and batteries because you’re waiting for fusion energy and solid state batteries. We don’t have time to wait around for the most beautifully efficient design to save the planet. We have to use the tools available right now.

Here is a question. If there is no power, can the car be pull/pushed with the new permanent battery motors? Or are the wheels locked?

AI crap

Kind of a deal breaker for me. Hub motors were one of my favorite features of the original Apterra design, since they dramatically reduce the complexity of the drive train, not just through power transmission, but also cooling and braking as well. Plus, since it's conventional front wheel drive now, it comes with all the problems associated with that. I wish them the best, and hope in the long run we can get back to the ideal design at some point.

I believe Aptera Company made the right decision to go with the inboard motor. I wasn’t comfortable with the hub motors even though I reserved one about a year ago.

Correction to the narrative of this video. Aptera will NOT have Apple Car Play in the Launch Addition

Our planet needs the Aptera. No matter how it is produced, if this change brings it to market sooner all the better. I am a reservation holder and I'm not discouraged at all.

Aptera should have been pragmatic 4 years ago. Being indecisive and inept is what they are.

I like the Aptera and actually have a reservation for one. You keep mentioning it's the only solar powered vehicle but that's not the case. Google "Cars that have solar charging".

Itz good. Gotta get to 1500

Aptera is NOT using "tandem" solar cells.

Aptera is using Amprius batteries?

The solar cells Aptera is using aren't "cutting edge". In one form or another, they've existed since 2003 or so....

The battery and solar cell technology you speak of might be something Aptera would consider in the next 2-3 years, however they have announced no such plan to use these products in their launch or near future. If you are not "in the know" why would you make these false statements? Your title is ok, but the body is misleading.

You really downplayed the switch from IWM's, which for years they claimed were more efficient than a motor in the nose. It's now less efficient and you are deceiving people.

Heated seats. Also hinged dash that can cover the windshield and improve the efficiency of those panels.

These cars need for the wheels and tires to be wide motorcycle slicks.

You really need 6 minutes to cite all the empty Aptera claims?

Too much reused video.

So still not in production ! they guys got to get a move on.

Information all copied from recent videos. I bet the narrator never even went to the event.

Your crash zooms and jump cuts made me stop after a minute of watching--why did you did this?

Odd that you chose videos from an event in San Diego but talked about the event in San Francisco. Considering that there is a ton of video available from the San Francisco event - this is a weird choice.

Secret plan to delay delay delay, change change change...sick of them

To outsell.... Aptera still not launched Wait and see 3 compagnies closed, which will be next one

Go after all market segments. Otherwise, someone is going to be disappointed, like me. I have been hoping for the Aptera to hit the road for at least 12 years now. I am 71 and may not have another 12 years to wait…😎

Was this meant to be a one of those videos designed for stoned people to watch? If so, great job on the editing and transitions. I don't even remember what the video is about, those jump cuts were so distracting.

A boat owner with a trailer would never use an electric type vehicle. Spending time to detach the trailer just to use the charging station is a nuisance. Those manufacturers who spec their driving ranges are always at their most ideal driving conditions. Batteries don't always retain their peak performance after their numerous charging cycles as time goes by. Your cellphone's battery is a good example. The best running time is brand new phone out of the box. After that proud owner's day, the battery's run time will get shorter and shorter.

From experience of watching what friends have spent on trailers that are rarely used and start falling apart quickly. They are for people that make more than they need and don’t mind or care about wasting their money. I found a simple shell on a pickup is the better way to go and multiple of thousands of dollars cheaper. Even car camping is a cheaper way to go. What some people pay just for storage for their trailers is amazing and cost more than what it would just to stay in a high end hotel close to the areas you want to explore. In the 1990s I traveled all over the western USA in Nissan pickup with a fiberglass camper shell that got close to 30 mph and cost of gas was the major cost. When friends did come with me and their trailers I noticed they were a hassle to deal with and limited some of the places they could go and stay. When they did get a camp ground they were spending more than some hotels would charge. BTW those of you with your trailers sure do clog up the roads in some areas in the summer. I am glad some people try to develop new products and can make a living from it but I find you can do almost anything in life without spending large sums of money.

My pre order price is already at the top end of what I can pay. If my price goes up I will cancel.

The dollar lost 20% of its value since 2020 so they will lose money if they don't raise the price at least 20%. If you want them to succeed, they need to make some profit.

Inflation has devalued the value of the dollar by at least 20% since 2020. Aptera would need to increase their price by at least 20% over their 2020 price just to break even. If you want them to succeed, you need to want them to earn a profit at some point.

Using the less-modern version is cheaper and still produces 20% more power meaning the motor will last longer since it's never under strain. The extra, and unexpected, power improvement should offset any bother they aren't using hub motors. When people start seeing these on the roads and asking questions, inefficient cars will not be acceptable from the manufacturers. I want a gas-powered eRex range extender mounted over the back wheel in my Aptera.

One of the big challenges will be certainly the selling price. As of today, the 400 miles, 40 miles all solar panels, Front wheel drive, Launch Edition Aptera is $30,700 Maybe difficult to compare with Aptera, but the Tesla Model 3 RWD 272 miles, is $38,990 The Tesla Model 3 RWD 353 miles, is $42,490 but after the $7,500 Tax Credit, is 34,990 The Tesla Model Y RWD 320 miles, is $44,990 but after the $7,500 Tax Credit, is 37,490 If the Aptera could also get the $7,500 Tax Credit, the selling price would be $23,200 Who know what other EVs will be available in 2025 in the $25,000 to $35,000.

Am I the only one that noticed the video is using chat gpt as the narrator? The creator probably had chat gpt create the whole video.

Their early model was a ripoff of Chesapeake Light Craft's Teardrop trailer. Your jerky video transitions are painful.

FWD is a dealbreaker kinda like a 3.5l twin turbo truck

They gotta stop with the launch delays.. these should be versions not launch changes. Just killing all the all wheel...(It's too expensive to make and we found cheaper parts)

Polydrop is a big customer. The product you mention requires a $100 fully refundable deposit. Then if you really want one, you need to put down an additional $4900. Then it's non refundable. As for a production date, it is expected to start in Q4 2024. That's expected, not fact. So, it's good they have this big customer selling a basic travel trailer for $38K. So, I ask you this, how big is this customer? As of now, the Aptera Solar System (ASS) is not mentioned on their site and for a travel trailer that has never been sold.

Aptera is a scam company just like Elio.

Don't you mean dying?

I have a reservation with a certificate dated June 22 2021. Anyone have any idea how far behind the head of the line I am with all the preferential investor programs that have gone on?

I preordered one of these day 1. I am still dubious I'll ever actually be able to buy one. I will be pissed as hell if they charge me extra money for my preorder even though I made this preorder years ago.
