I'm here because I got an email from this board. I'm surprised it still exists.

What's the lastest production date?

I assumed some time ago that the car will never be built and just walked away. $1,000 down the toilet.

Now, I'm looking to get an Aptera.

THE "NEW" APTERA? "...and for every hour in the sun, you get 7+ miles of driving range."

Correction: For every hour in the sun you get NOTHING. At least not until they prove it to be so.
They have NOT built a working prototype of the "New" (and to my mind, impossible to achieve in the physical world) Aptera yet.

No disrespect intended, but didn't you learn your lesson from Elio Motors?
If it sounds too good to be true, it most likely is.

I don't care who owned the company when they went belly up ten years or so ago, leaving many investors in the lurch..
The original people who ultimately let that happen ONCE AGAIN trying to sell you a car THAT DEFIES THE LAWS OF BOTH NATURE AND FINANCE!

I also received your email. I'm still here, NE OHIO with my goats, chickens and now retired husband. The Granddaughters have all grown and went on with their lives. Sure they've given up on Crazy Old GrandMother's dream, if they even remember. These days I am watching the Lordstown Motor Plant come in to make the Endurance Electric Pickup trucks. They are still in position to help out Workhorse make their USPS electric delivery trucks in / from Loveland, OHIO if need be. And just between me and my old friends here, I am hoping Lordstown Motor Plant will someday, maybe two or three years from now, slip Paul Elio in the back door to make our Elios. So Yeah, I still believe in Elio. I still wear my T-Shirts. This Saturday is my anniversary of buying my first elio reservation #1685, 2013.

Looks like Ohio might be getting $ 28million from GM to repay the state for costs and tax advantages:
