Just found out about something hilarious

So it's a new car company (normally wouldn't be interesting but follow me on this)

They are planning on producing solar powered cars (seems unrealistic but maybe they know something I don't)

They are getting their money from crowdfunding (oh so it's a scam)

Their car looks like THIS

My god. It's beautiful. It only has 3 wheels. This honestly might beat cybertruck for dumbest looking car ever. It's called the "Aptera Milestone" for anyone who wants to laugh at a technobro scam so hilarious and obvious that anyone who invests is asking for it.

Commission; modeled, printed, and painted by me. Files are available here.

My dad is a big fan of these cars; I don’t think they’re commercially available yet but he’s on the waiting list for sure. And I gotta say, they’re pretty cool-looking.

Aptera solar electric vehicle (sEV)

All Apteras are made of carbon, kevlar, and hemp and have a battery pack as a backup for those who travel more than the estimated 46-mile (74-km) range offered by the rooftop solar panels. 

Because the sEV is light and aerodynamic, the battery is enough to deliver a 1,000+-mile (1,609-km) range on a single charge.

Aptera’s Solar Electric Vehicle That Never Needs Charging Ready For Production

Electric car makers don’t add solar panels to their roofs because it wouldn’t generate enough power, and the driver would still need to charge it, so it’s pointless. Solar racers don’t have that problem because their vehicles are ultra-lightweight and feature extreme-aerodynamic shapes. Aptera has combined the best of both...
