There are two YouTube videos linked to on their website: http://www.aptera.com/media.php

One is a launch video that shows the vehicle rolling onto the stage. The other video is of it accelerating to top speed in a parking lot.

Aptera=sleep apnea - 200MPG diesel VW

Who cares! Volkswagen already had a car decades ago that gets 200mpg. Nobody wants a damn hybrid or anything you have to plug in. Either make it 1 fuel type or forget it. Ethanol sucks too.

There seems to be hold up on the actual selling of the Aptera! I would have already bought one! Or would buy one today but am not able to do so and I am a strong supporter of this technology and design .
I am almost doubtful that the governor of California and our national government will allow this type of vehicle onto our roads until we stop Middle East and other oil folks from wiping these American genius away with million dollar bills!
Of course what do I know, I'm just a dumb old writer!

Wow, such an amazing car! Still not sure if I would prefer the hybrid or all electric version. Have you seen the Loremo? It seems to have a lot of potential as well. Check out info, videos, and pictures of several green vehicles at www.EcoSoln.com .
