Solar EV Gets More Slippery For Production-Intent Las Vegas Debut

06 Jan 2025 | Abstracted from New Atlas

Aptera is driving into CES 2025 for the first public showing of its production-intent solar electric vehicle... a completed three-wheeler has made its way to the Las Vegas Convention Center for its public debut this week, after a short detour to Italy.

"...the vehicle that's heading for production will have a 700 watts of integrated solar cells on its upper surfaces – which is reckoned good for up to 40 miles (64 km) of range without needing to plug in thanks to the vehicle's slippery body design and lightweight construction."
