Is lift a problem at high speeds?
-
Very aerodynamic cars with low drag coefficients may suffer lift, an upthrust force that causes under or over steering due to reduced downward load and tire grip. Lift increases significantly the higher the speed. Does the aptera suffer lift at high speeds?

Early in the program, one of the engineers stated that there was a small amount of down force at speed.

This was addressed in an interview recently with Chris Anthony – at 38:25 in this video:
