Скачать или смотреть Aptera Taking Orders for EV That It Claims Never Needs Charging

On this electric car, they say, solar panels can generate 40 miles of range per day. Which means that next year, you might be able to buy a plug-in that doesn't need to be plugged in.

Someday, electric cars will have 1000 miles of range. And that day will come next year, if Aptera makes good on its claims for the latest iteration of its three-wheeled, two-seat EV.

The Aptera looks like an airplane fuselage minus the wings, which, they say, earns it a 0.13 coefficient of drag and allows it to expend only 100 watt-hours of energy per mile. Thus, with a 100.0-kWh pack, you get 1000 miles of range. Or actually somewhat more, because the Aptera also has another trick: its "Never Charge" solar roof array, which can add about 40 miles of range over the course of a (sunny) day. Adding panels to the hood and hatch can add another 24 miles of range. So theoretically, depending on the location and your driving habits, you might not have to ever plug the thing in.

Which is not to say that the Aptera is solar powered, in the sense of real-time charging while driving. The sun just doesn't spit out enough horsepower for that, unless you build something with a ton of surface area and near zilch for drag. That's why experimental solar-powered cars always look like a section of tin roof fell onto a recumbent bicycle. Aptera says the solar charge rate can hit five miles of range per hour. Hey, that could add up. You paying attention, preppers?.
