Engine power is 134 hp. sec., thanks to which the car accelerates to 100 km / h in just 5,5 seconds.

Aptera plans to put on stream cars with batteries with a capacity of 40 kWh (power reserve 640 km) and 60 kWh (cruising range 960 km), as well as 100 kWh (power reserve up to 1600 km). The machine in the maximum configuration will have a 201 hp engine. from. with four-wheel drive.

There are several other interesting features: the car has three wheels and a super-streamlined shape with an aerodynamic drag coefficient of 0,13 (the Tesla Model 3, for example, has a coefficient of 0,23). A basic electric car will cost $ 25, and a fully equipped one - $ 900. Deliveries are expected in 46, and pre-orders can be made today.
