It kind of looks like a kidney bean on wheels.

But I was thinking. What if you went on a camping trip for 5 days? If it was 
parked for 5 days, it would theoretically add 200 miles of range for your trip 
home.

Still. Having to ride around in a kidney bean is trey weird.

These guys have 3X the efficiency of my leaf, so that is good.  Even if you 
could get 100 square feet of panel on a car, that is 1000 watts if oriented 
perfectly.  So a bit more than 1 HP for actually driving on it.  They say they 
have a 100 kWh battery.  OK 100 hours of sunlight to charge.  But they probably 
only have half that much charging capacity.  But still, if you have sunny 
climate, very short commute and you don’t mind riding in a bathtub it would be 
fun to have.

Aptera has been in startup mode for something like a decade. A lot of hat, and 
not much in the way of cattle.
