Basically its a roof rack solar panel with a battery inside (includes AC outlet), extra fold out panels that cover the length of the car, and a charge cable for the car. They’re about $5000 USD and are shipping the first ones out in Q3 this year.
As someone who lives in an appt and commutes, this would make an electric vehicle much more viable as there is no charging stations in my building or at my work. I saw this and immediately began researching what vehicle models would be coming to Canada in 2028.
10 miles is generous. Assuming no cloud, near the equator, and no possibility of shade or bird shit.
Youtube repeatedly sells this solar car fantasy and people just suck it up. Aptera has been grifting this for 16 years and a car has yet to appear…just another $50M brah, I promise.
