the looks of the car is due to the great amount of aerodynamic systems .

the car moves easy with these designs due to the reduction of the air resistance.

I can olso say that some people will buy it just for the reason you refuse it for.

I know some who will buy it because it doesnt look like any car in the street

thanks man for the opinion

Interesting thoughts.

The Smart Car didn’t look much like a car when it came out. But it works. People buy them, and eventually there are more around, so we get used to how they look. Opinions on design evolve through success.

that is showing the safety structure. How about just showing the nice outside and the nice interior shots. it does look like it could fly. did you see the video?

@ WS – you are right, I had an old image. I replaced it with a new one. It looks pretty much the same, except for additional styling. My comments stand.

Uh, that is NOT what it looks like. That is the old/original proof of concept. aptera dot com has the latest version of this vehicle.

the prius is successful because of the FACT of 4 doors and 4 pass.

why is it so hard to get the latest images/specs/facts for aptera?

Oh, and too bad the big T loses, yes loses, money on every Prius sold.
