With all the info and discussions over the last two days, TED test ride etc. we sure have gained a lot of knowledge on just what the Aptera is evolning into. Of particular interest to me is the size of the vehicle, much lower now, not as wide..........gotta love it. The tech features discussed in the video are impressive and should grow / get better over time, very nice. Overall, I am very encouraged by the latest info from Josh and company.

This is not an iCar . . . it is a GoogleCar. It looks like Google gave them more than just money.

Very nice josh, thanks!

Great to hear in josh's review of the ride that his perception was that it was very quiet. Now that I hear the noise level on the video, it doesn't sound much louder than a golf cart at full speed.

Noise isolation was a concern of mine and obviously, there was a major reduction in drivetrain noise moving the motor from inside the cabin (essentially, in the Typ-1), to the other side of the firewall in the nose of the vehicle (front wheel drive 2e).

Good job Aptera, better traction and handling plus a much more refined cabin...

yes, the torrent is working. 2.5 hrs., 5 peers. I'll keep a computer on for the next day or two with the torrent. Hopefully that'll help.

Great audio of the 2e driving down the road! Sounds the same in my NmG. Glad everyone on the forum is getting to hear the sounds of driving electric. Steve's comment regarding reactions from people on the street is right on the money with my experience.
Thanks Josh!!
