As an investor in Arrival, this was painful to watch. If this video was just released in Aug. 2024, how was it not mentioned that Arrival has gone bankrupt? It was their production concept that sold me on them. I still think it's the future of manufacturing.
This video is from 2021. All TH-cam channels posting documentaries use old material, even decades old, but they won't mention it in the description. Annoying as hell. Shame on them. Before watching, I always skip to the end to see the copyright, and won't watch if it's too old.
Yeah, if you skip to the end, even if they placed the "next video" just on top of the original logo to hide it, it says "(c) MMXXI Curiosity Inc". So it is from 2021. Also some video parts show people with masks, which suggests that time.
It's really a shame if they've gone bankrupt. They were so innovative in so many ways. The materials they used, micro manufacturing and intelligent production lines.
Aptera is the car of the future. It reduces the need for chargers and the vast majority of the components are recyclable. They use graphite composites. It is unfortunate that Arrival failed. Sometimes an idea is just a little too soon. I hope their technology is restarted in 10 or 20 years. The world may be much more open to the idea then. Aptera first started 18 years ago and restarted 3 or 4 years ago.
@@rovert1284I agree, the two seater does have a more limited appeal. But 2-4 years down the road when Aptera comes out with their 4 seater and SUV the appeal will be much broader.
It’s an interesting product, but it only makes sense in rural areas where distances are greater between home and needed destinations, food or work or heath needs. Being a three wheeled vehicle is not ideal in open road space as a side wind can push it over.
I paused the video when they showed Electreon. While I'm for EVs, cars, I would prefer a revamped public transit system for the reason that electric cars wouldn't reduce trafic jams. Governments such as the Province of Québec in Canada wants people to buy electric cars. However, the infrastructure such as chargers is not going fast enough. Québec's government is thinking of canceling subsidies while in 2023 there were 250.000 + electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles. Public/shopping mall parkings need to be upgraded with chargers. So, I'm going for more revamped public transit electric/hybrid, of course..
You're not wrong. However, Solartech solves the mall parking chargers substantially with its pop-up parking lot off grid chargers. We also need massive reconductoring of current grids, and V2G.
Revamp it all you want. I won't be using it. I had to use the bus in the past and that was a huge waste of two hrs when my own vehicle would get me home in
While there is still a need for a personal EV vehicle, within urban spaces (dense cities) mass transit is by far the better! Then for the few times one needs to venture far lease a personal EV for the day, week or month. The key here is the level of automation the bus has a full autonomous bus be it small or large is the direction we need to go to make it both more economical but offer much better service. Even offering a taxi type of service when the destination is not common to the larger flow of transit.
32:26 Oh dear god. Induction coil roadways? Did people learn nothing from the solar roadway debacle? Roads are NOT good places to put wiring, electronics, anything other than cement or asphalt. When they break (they will break) when they need maintenance (they will need maintenance) You have to shut the entire road down and get a jack hammer just to get to it. Not to mention the cost of building any length of road, with coils in it. The most expensive road in the world that would be. And why? Just to say you're induction charging? Pantograph systems are proven technology that is easy to service and repair, low cost, and FAST. Easily half the ideas in this documentary are pipe dreams that are going to fail. I'm all for thinking outside the box, but this kind of quackary is one of the reasons people distrust science and technology. People get promises that are impossible to deliver.
Maybe in a high trafficked city street which is stuck in traffic 😂 it’s possible in a city with limited space for charging parks, I can see parking spaces overnight night time charging via induction but the amount of energy needed to transfer is a problem between the safety risks and the time window the vehicle is standing still.
I've been following the Aptera development for several years. According to information I've seen published in various places, the Aprtera has a range of 400 miles, can do zero to 60 mph in four seconds, and has a top speed of 101 mph. In my view, none of these levels are necessary to have a truly practical and marketable vehicle. I believe that if they had a vehicle with a range of 250-300 miles, 0-60 time of 7-8 seconds, and top speed of 80-90 mph, they would be able to create a vehicle with a more "normal" appearance profile and use case, and would have a better product.
Regarding the claim that an Aptera can charge up to 4 times faster than other EVs at the same public charging. I believe what the founder was saying in a simplistic fashion is that because an Aptera, due to it’s light weight, small size & aerodynamic efficiency, has a battery about 1/4 the size of other EVs. Thus it can finish charging in 1/4 of the time necessary for larger batteries.
My issue is inductive charging does create inductive drag. I think it is much more appropriate for stationary vehicles. I am curious as to the efficiency for moving and stationary charging.
ALSO THE ROADS THEMSELVES CAN BE POWER GENERATORS, BY HAVING THE VIBRATION FROM VEHICLES PRODUCE THE VERY POWER THATS POWERING THE BATTERIES. SORT OF LIKE A SELF SUPPORTING POSITIVE FEEDBACK LOOP
Okay I'm curious, how does an experimental vehicle like that get registered to legally drive on the road? When a new car design is created, it has to pass so many government and industry tests before it gets allowed to be sold and driven on the roads. I can tell you already there is no way that vehicle is going to pass those tests not just because it would not stand up to collision tests, but even little things like the front end being dangerous to pedestrians. Do you ever wonder why modern vehicles have front bumpers blunted, rounded, and covering a large vertical area? It's so that if a pedestrian is struck, it doesn't drive over them, or submarine under than breaking their legs. It's safe for pedestrians, but doesn't make for great aero. I really hate that these documentaries gloss over these little details and make it seem like you're going to see these things on a show room floor in a few years.
I assume they pay large enough fee and are good to go, without full tests. Same as Lamborghini (they don't do crash tests, not with how much a single car costs) and other exclusive models.
Guys guys... Look up your local state or county laws on vehicle registration. It sometimes depends on the classification of the vehicle but also in some us states a very lax safety inspection.
Aptera due to having 3 wheels is classified as a motorcycle with a fully enclosed cab in the United States. This makes getting it approved for use much easier, but they are still going to do the crash tests as they believe it surpasses those requirements.
@@robinpettit7827 In my state, it's classified as an autocycle. "An autocycle is a motor vehicle that: has three wheels. is designed with seating that does not require operators or any occupants to straddle or sit astride it. has a steering wheel. is originally manufactured to meet federal motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS) for motorcycles under 49 CFR part 571."
I'm all for Aptera, big fan of Aptera. However few details are incorrect. The charging speed will actually be much slower than most electric cars, but it will have smaller battery so it will take about the same time to charge Aptera compared to other el cars. Aptera will not have motors in the wheels like originally proposed but will have regular el motor connected to the wheels.
America was the country to popularise the pickup truck and suv. These vehicles are expensive and inefficient. These large vehicles burn lots of oil.They cost a lot to maintain and run. But make big profits for the auto industry and oil companies. They are unsuitable for large, congested city where space is limited.
People were pushing the Aptera vehicle concept quite a long time ago. They started taking deposits for a 100MPG gasoline version around 2008. They never made it to production. I predict that this vehicle will not go in to production either. The projected selling prices are too high and the vehicle's capability is too low to be able to take advantage of economies of scale.
They've announced for 2025 at a rate of 7,000 vehicles per year. That said, they've missed targets before now. You can reserve your order now. They've also licensed their tech for use in things like trailers and boats.
@@petrosnemardos Tesla roadster and original Aptera were of similar vintage. Enough people wanted a high performance electric roadster backed by a billionaire that it succeeded. Not enough people wanted a solar-charged tricycle backed by a millionaire. Aptera has come a long way from that version, has attracted key industry engineering expertise, and is taking advantage of technology that didn't exist seventeen years ago. That said, the proof of the pudding is in the eating. You can test drive a production Tesla, and we can know from all the test drivers that it's a desirable product. We can't test drive production Apteras yet.

At $0.05/share, it time to gamble and buy shares in Arrival(ARVLF). Buying 100 shares will cost only $5.00. How many cups of Starbucks coffee can I buy for $5.00? I think, instead of coffee, I'll buy some stock. If Arrival does belly up, I' have nothing. After drinking the coffee, I'll have nothing. However, if Arrival becomes successful, I could become wealthy and so I will buy some coffee(LOL).......P.S. I bought Geely at $0.07/share....Geely now sells at $1.05. At one time Geely was well over $2/share. Geely's dividends have already paid me back the price of my stock investment several times over. Maybe Arrival will do the same. Remember, you can't win of you don't gamble.
Basic question: car manufacturers are considering centre of gravity, autonomous cars and everything else under the sun, to produce newly designed cars. Why on earth they can't produce cars with center drive steering wheels, for general public? In your answer, please don't use following excuses: 1) Public is used to left or right hand drives or it's our habit now 2) Center drive will hinder driver's view or give invalid safety issues 3) No one will buy them or total number of seats will have to be reduced Would appreciate your professional view & legitimate possible reasons manufacturers are restricted with left or right hand steering wheels.

This documentary didn’t show the true conditions in which cobalt and lithium are mined. The realities are criminal. Transferring ownership from people to corporations is a hot trend right now and I don’t like it. Whether it is real property or vehicles. Corporations are convincing the people that its better that they control all the assets and you distract yourself on your little devices while we take your money and anything else you may have. Human ingenuity and creative is fascinating and boundless. I just wish it wasn’t sucked up in the corporate vacuum and ultimately used in greedy schemes.

Guys, your work looks very cool, good job! But here's the thing, you are talking about a "greener" planet, well guess what? The planet has been greener than ever before now! And guess thanks to what? CO2! And cars! Trees take in CO2 and convert it to oxygen! Look up history about green areas and when they became greener and you will see that in the beginning of Cars states like Texas (for example) how it became a greener state with regular rain all thanks to cars and CO2. While new technology is great, don't bite in the lies of "climate change", because climate change is caused by other facts like their weather modification programs that they do not talk about, do some searching on that and you will find that the weather has been manipulated in order to be used against us and our way of living. Good luck to all, pray to god .
electric vehicles are ticking time bombs, , internal combustion engine is the best ingestion , along with it being able to be converted to run on bio diesel and the water powered engine, ,evs are no different than nuclear powered vehicles
Fearmongering? Tch. EVs are much safer than ICEs. While biodiesel and py-gasoline are real and possible, they can replace at most 15% of fossil, and we need fossil to end by 2030. There are no such things as water powered engines. There's H2, but over 90% of H2 is made from methane and makes climate change worse. Plus, expensive.
The next gen of EV’s with better battery technology as well as the vehicle construct will be the game changer! This is just the start of the E evolution sadly COVID messed up a few companies as well as the delays caused just within R&D has us slipping a good 10 years. When we need this now!
There version off lithium battery world is a entitlement for family needs not what is the best most cost effective methods like your wind gas turbines did you know that if on used split cores to same pole lines and super state wind power generator could be done at near 1/3 that total amount off neyodium magnet so class add the fact off gas turbines not one with gear loading that would save 1/3 the total amount off fuels needed to power that turbine or on electric my math by nasa motor run turbine math to a kilowatt output needs at 850w single motor but if you x4 together use 3 250w motors thats able after losses to obtain that kilowatt output needs grid viable option all but start up?????? application form.

Grt research en investments BT China 🇨🇳 outputs all down, already is floading the Market with Advanced tech with likes of Zeekr, Xpeng, BYD, HUAWEI, XIAOMI, NIO, GLEELY, CHEERY etc😊😊, BT still Americans try u best market is there en no one with market monopoly, jus bring excellent Cars at cheaper price u will be racing too for customers, en stop ur cries over China for out competing U, en u slap china with burden tariffs blaming it over capacity BT instead out kicked the west technologically ❤❤❤❤❤
This documentary didn’t show the true conditions in which cobalt and lithium are mined. The realities are criminal.
Transferring ownership from people to corporations is a hot trend right now and I don’t like it. Whether it is real property or vehicles. Corporations are convincing the people that its better that they control all the assets and you distract yourself on your little devices while we take your money and anything else you may have.
Human ingenuity and creative is fascinating and boundless. I just wish it wasn’t sucked up in the corporate vacuum and ultimately used in greedy schemes.
Try graphite says to battery space half the acid storage in panels to impact areas??? Should use a water skimper then use the car electric system to turn that to a fule supply or if off the neutron star core math to atomic light transfer gold gets us a proton electron transfer from gama light image if you had the neutron you could magnetic press hydrogen gas??
Camry's will also use much less fuel as your American products, or you too scared to test this
Arrival never arrived
They are still building UPS vehicles under contract.
"Aptia"? 🤨
It's going to be China made EVs.
Why use US vocabulary like 'transportation' and 'automobile'?

Guys, your work looks very cool, good job! But here's the thing, you are talking about a "greener" planet, well guess what? The planet has been greener than ever before now! And guess thanks to what? CO2! And cars! Trees take in CO2 and convert it to oxygen! Look up history about green areas and when they became greener and you will see that in the beginning of Cars states like Texas (for example) how it became a greener state with regular rain all thanks to cars and CO2. While new technology is great, don't bite in the lies of "climate change", because climate change is caused by other facts like their weather modification programs that they do not talk about, do some searching on that and you will find that the weather has been manipulated in order to be used against us and our way of living. Good luck to all, pray to god .
Speculation. A false vidio
This is misleading 👎
Arrival wen bankrupt in 2024!!!
electric vehicles are ticking time bombs, , internal combustion engine is the best ingestion , along with it being able to be converted to run on bio diesel and the water powered engine, ,evs are no different than nuclear powered vehicles
Don't forget e-fuels can run ICE vehicles with 0 modification too 😎
Fearmongering? Tch. EVs are much safer than ICEs.
While biodiesel and py-gasoline are real and possible, they can replace at most 15% of fossil, and we need fossil to end by 2030.
There are no such things as water powered engines. There's H2, but over 90% of H2 is made from methane and makes climate change worse. Plus, expensive.
😅😅😅😅😅😅 you have no clue!
@@gmv0553 loopk up ev explosin , look up reports of evs being used as bombs in terrorist attacks
The next gen of EV’s with better battery technology as well as the vehicle construct will be the game changer! This is just the start of the E evolution sadly COVID messed up a few companies as well as the delays caused just within R&D has us slipping a good 10 years. When we need this now!
There version off lithium battery world is a entitlement for family needs not what is the best most cost effective methods like your wind gas turbines did you know that if on used split cores to same pole lines and super state wind power generator could be done at near 1/3 that total amount off neyodium magnet so class add the fact off gas turbines not one with gear loading that would save 1/3 the total amount off fuels needed to power that turbine or on electric my math by nasa motor run turbine math to a kilowatt output needs at 850w single motor but if you x4 together use 3 250w motors thats able after losses to obtain that kilowatt output needs grid viable option all but start up?????? application form. Cause there car has to be charged not self charge 18th century tec fish cars wind power. Non sustainable development growth.
Your calculations are suspect, and ignore CATL's sodium-based battery chemistry.
I gave up on aptera a long time ago it's a beautiful vehicle, but at this point, it's starting to look like a scam.
We will know by mid 2025!
Great day from dangrek mountain capital hill of Krung Preah Beida Sung Khmer-Thai. The only future dragonfly capital hill of Asia 🌏 that going to have the largest airport and airbase for Boeing and air force direct fly from all G7 countries members and Thailand Philippines Indonesia Myanmar and their people living up to 1 millions foreigners and working and business and investing and products village community of theirs nation.
