I look at the pictures in that article and it just isn't the Aptera I fell in love with. Instead of a futuristic wingless airplane getting ready to fly, it now looks like a weird fish out of water. Super low to the ground, without the elegant wheelcovers, etc. Aptera got me interested in an EV, but I just don't find it all that stylish and attractive anymore.

My favorite from the xprize is still the Evaro, but not much news about that lately either

I'm very happy with my Ford Fusion Hybrid in the meantime, but I'd like so much more. So for now, I'm just impatiently waiting to see what happens. I check things here less and less frequently as it is all rather dissappointing to follow anymore.

Was a deposit holder, but not for a long time now.

For sheer beauty and simplicity I think the Zen/PP2 was the most beautiful. I would have bought the PP6 for $30K or less without question. And I'd even take the malformed stepchild S0-1 if they could get their act together and make the thing. It's not going to happen under the PBW regime and it saddens me that the BOD hasn't ousted him for his many failures.
