The freedom to go anywhere you want.
Aptera is the first Solar Electric Vehicle that can require no charging for most daily use.
To give you a 1,000 mile range, we had to develop the world’s most efficient vehicle.
Now you can go five times farther than other electric vehicles.

Aptera’s undercarriage swoops like a dolphin’s belly. This reduces drag, or the force of air flowing against the motion of the vehicle. Aptera is curved at the nose, wide along the sides and tapered toward the trunk — like a small, speedy aircraft.
To build the most efficient vehicle, we had to reimagine the shape of transportation.
Drag coefficients, a measure of the amount of resistance an object encounters as it moves, compared:
Lighter, stronger, safer.
Lighter cars require less energy to move. Aptera weighs 65% less than other electric vehicles today. The body is built with ultra-lightweight composites and its arched shape mimics the physics of an eggshell — that protects you and your loved ones with a safety cell that is much stronger than steel.
Less friction gives you an optimized ride
Again Aptera leads the pack by having the least “rolling resistance” — the amount of energy needed to keep your tires rolling at a straight and steady pace. Our three wheel design — instead of four, eliminates a touch point where energy can be lost.
Continuously charging technology.
Eliminate the worry of finding charging stations. Aptera’s unique diamond shaped solar panels maximize the energy you get from the sun. This gives fully equipped vehicles ~700 Watts of continuous charging power — whether you’re driving or parked.
Enough space to carry what you need.
Whether you’re hauling the gear for your favorite activities, sleeping under the stars, or securing your furry friend, Aptera is designed to fit you and all of your cargo. With 32.5 cubic feet of rear storage, Aptera has room to meet your needs.
Handle weather.
Aptera has been developed to handle well in harsh conditions with all-wheel-drive and an anti-lock braking system.
