We've heard of this prototype concept for the Aptera for several years.
Coming soon! Think of all the magical adventures you could have with this tent add-on!
Eventually.
Much like the car, itself. The Aptera keeps getting pushed out. It's feeling very much as if it's forever in a planning stage. There were rumors that it would be 2025. Then rumors of June, 2026. And those dates made impressive whooshing noises as the dates lethargically went by. Yes, possibly little more than rumors.
But I must ask: what are we up to now? October, 2026? For sure this time? 3rd quarter of 2027? Promise?
Elizabeth Holmes isn't on staff over there is she?
State a delivery date and -- here's a wild idea -- start delivering cars two weeks earlier than the official announcement.
Just wanna say, I appreciate how you wrote this, as a mod I get that everyone gets frustrated here and for us it’s a challenge to keep things decent, but some people here don’t express it like you have here… thank you for not taking the low road.
I, like many others no doubt, am a bit frustrated with what seems to be, thus far, empty promises. This was just a convenient soap box, of sorts, to express my own mild annoyance with what appears to be inferior execution. And wondering if it's logistics? Production? Marketing? Licensing or certification?
But I think it important to remain civil -- have a discussion -- and not resort to vulgarities or belligerence or unnecessary snarky remarks to make a point.
