The car of the future promised for October

You can say it's not "your style", but there's never been anything like this before, so what's your negative reaction based on?
I love it, this car is so different, and very cutting edge.
200 mpg?
Yes, please.
When do I get one for my driveway?

How would these things handle in the snow and ice??? I am just wondering how the people in areas that experience a lot of snow would do in these. These are the reasons that people in areas of the countries still buy trucks. What do they have in the works for people that make their living in places that have a more harsh environment.
I think it is really cool though, and would love it.
I am also wondering the saftey of a child riding in it, there are laws about children riding up front. Just a thought for us current parents.....

it looks kinda ugly. but at least its electric

I love that things are changing. These stories give me hope for a brighter future.

I'm in love!
Too cool..

Of course bullet train are nice also.

Hey, do you see what I see? The one vehicle that just may put Hummer out of business! I say good riddance. With the demand coming, I wouldn't doubt they raise the price, either.

Still, its a beautiful piece of engineering. I been checking the Aptera since 2005 when they weer but an American dream. Its good to know this lovely invention will not only bring money back to the US, but also bring to light a real contender for alternative energy, fuel efficient vehicles built here, as well.

Obama should give them some money or tax breaks to take their operations mass scale and provide jobs.

100 miles isn't much, especially if you're living in a driving intensive area like SoCal or if you plan on doing any trips.

Honestly, at this fucking juncture, we need to think about how we're going to deal with the damage global warming is going to cause. It's too late to prevent it, it was too late in 2005. You can thank the Republicans for that.

If It was available in europe I would certainly buy one!

a few things i don't understand.. once you are in the air, who will navigate, who will land it?? where will it land?? doesn't the faa has a say in it??

the rear view is kinda ugly :|

Badass

We look back at automobiles and they were almost always ugly, but not to some...and it will grow on you.

It looks like it can fly!

:D

But does it blend? The car of the future is suppose to do everything. Especially fly!

Pshh Electric cars are soo 1900s we need Mr. Fusion Home Energy Reactors.

hmmm. i love how the article says it will be "relatively affordable (at $25,000 to $45,000)" thats not relatively affordable at any rate unless your name starts with bernard and ends with madoff.

Fugly.
If you make an ugly car, it will not be successful.

how much?

i dunno...maybe they should make the car look more "normal"...jus seems somewhat unrealistic to look like a space pod or something lol

I like the idea that it's hybrid and efficient though thumbs up!

consider all the resources that go into the production of these though. better to resist car ownership entirely and let them taper out than continuously replace them with the 'greener' model.

i mean, obviously if cars are going to be manufactured and purchased anyway, these are the superior choice. but we're getting really good at embracing false security.

Kinda large to park huh?

Cool stuff! It's looks like something the Jetson's would drive.

I can't wait. This will be great for city commuting.

Roger and me wouldn't like it, but Spock and me would love it.

would love it but the style sort of not my thing but the 200 mpg is my thing

Cool...makes me want one.
The price isn't too shabby for a start-up company with new technology.
