It is a pity, a great design that by the time it gets out in the next decade, if it gets out at all, is already obsolete as of today. It is been 10 + years in the drawing table.
I worked for Elaphe, a great company, which developed IWM for Aptera. Even if Aptera doesn't use IWM in its production model, I will be thrilled to see this vehicle on the road in high numbers. I hope that day comes soon.
I've been following Elaphe for years and I just don't understand why they aren't in every EV at this point. The "skateboard" with in-wheel motors is a great concept with no drawbacks beyond the "unsprung weight" issue, which suspension designers can deal with pretty easily.
@@netscrooge I hope for the same as well and will sell my first Aptera when (if) the 2- or 3-IWM version makes it to the market. Not aspiring for rear IWM compined with 1 motor for the 2 front wheels though.
Someday I hope the Elaphe motors will be on a future design. I could not see how they would make a profit for less than $45,000 with those motors and 3 inverters right now. Unsprung weight is no match for vectored thrust. Maybe call it the sport version and go back to 3.5 seconds 0 to 60!?
It feels so great to see coming things together towards production. Alone the reward for us waiting will be extraordinary, let alone how it must feel for all those of you directly involved with this amazing development! Go Aptera, go!
@@ApteraMotors In order to enjoy these vibes too (and on a daily basis) I even would work for free for Aptera, also if it "only" was securing the vital supply of coffee, pizza and tacos! 😁 Unfortunately I'm not living right around the corner. 🤷♂
Thanks to each and every one of you at Aptera, and to each of you working within the sub-contractors, who have worked so hard to achieve this milestone!! Congratulations!! Thank You for sharing the development journey with us!! May major funding come knocking at your door very soon!!!!
I enjoyed seeing the PI2 driving under its own power, but I think what I enjoyed more was seeing the Aptera team together as they worked towards this milestone. Most of the time we just see one or two people in a large relatively empty building. Seeing many, if not most, of the team together really makes Aptera, the company, not just the car, feel more real and complete. Thank you for all of your hard work.
Do my eyes deceive me? Is that a steering wheel with a flat bottom instead of a yoke? Please say Yes…it’s a dream come true! I have been begging for a steering wheel forever! This will enhance the driver experience and safety, and will encourage me to honor my reservation. Thank you so very much!
Sorry you feel that way. I would insert a comment here but, "when they go low we go high". Turning down an Aptera, for one issue, when one considers all it has to offer is irrational. @@jameslester4474

I pre-ordered on 7th Jan 2021. Almost 4 years later and we may have one working production prototype. I am not certain this will come to fruition. The previous version of Aptera went under.
It doesn't work. Have you confirmed the battery, standard charging, miles/kWh, kWh/day, battery range, temperature control for full range weather exposure, cabin HVAC, crash safety, likely price, production facility?
Team Aptera, thank you for your valiant efforts!!! We are all looking forward to improving our environment, reduce/eliminate fuel costs and have a nice ride :-)
Wow! Truly an awesome milestone! I swear, I think about my new Aptera pretty much every day. Looking forward to one day getting behind the adorable U-shaped wheel. Thank you for your perseverance!
Perfect timing! I secured a 24-month lease for an Ioniq 6, just in time for my Launch Edition Aptera. I'm currently at position 1341 on the accelerator list.
Fantastic progress! Kudos to all the unseen hard workers who spent countless hours. Your team is amazing, and I look forward to owning one of these one day.
Track testing AGAIN you mean. As the Aptera was already track tested several times in the previous configurations that didn't have a on board motor and gearing . ALL the Testing was done with the in wheel motors that have now been replaced, so all that testing is now totally invalid. IF they retest it will again take months to years to re configure the suspension and handling with the now Sprung weight out front, not to mention the front used to be a safety crumple zone, that now has a big Heavy Motor and Gear transfer assembly that will be shoved into the cabin in a front impact. Good thing this is listed as an "autocycle" so they don't have to pass the Crash Safety Tests !
Congrats Team Aptera!!!!!! PI-2 will be rolling on sunshine soon!!! Can't wait for the test results after Aptera goes through high speed testing at the track. Yay!!!!
I’m glad to see firm progress. I think this is a fantastic practical vehicle that satisfies the need for cheap and reliable transportation for commuting to and from work.

I've always known that good ideas have the possibility of succeeding but great ideas and true innovation are guaranteed to succeed! The future never lets great ideas fail especially when dedicated teams believe in their vision. Congratulations Aptera Team! I enjoy the Journey toward 'powered by the sun' more and more each day.

So exciting! Thanks for your hard work Aptera!
I gave this video a restrained like because it still shows some progress. Please show, not only more progress, but real evidence of a way forward (such as significant funding) to make me an enthusiastic investor and reservation holder once again. Keep going forward Aptera!
Thanks for the like! We appreciate your investment and reservation. We're working around the clock to secure funding for production as well. As soon as we have something to announce, we will be sure to notify the community. 💚
@ Thank you. I look forward to the updates!👍
I too am a Rev holder and investor. Will be genuinely excited when I hear (likely dillutive) funding for production is in place so I can join the cheerleaders.
Love the update! Eagerly awaiting delivery. Take your time and get it right!
