Their are automotive brands out there where I associate an element of the vehicles’ historic design to the brand, even if it is not always included in their logo
E..g., Jeep is the main brand logo but... I associate the iconic Jeep grill plate, which is on all their models even beginning on old war time WW ll ( 1941 ) Jeeps, with that company
Do you think there will be an element of the Aptera that may surface as an iconic design element ?
E.g. an element of the aerodynamic body style with solar cells on it?
Just having some fun...
For me that rear wheel cover “Aptera aerodynamic skirt” is one element that pops.The “belly” is very different and cute, but seems to morph into a more conventional look after the roadster
I doubt this is important to Aptera at this time. Hey, they have a great logo to carry forward!
How about a glowing green "A" daytime running light in the lines of the diamond orientation solar cells on the front bonnet.
To make things more efficient the green lines could be made from strontium aluminate (Green glow in the dark stuff) so when the aptera goes into tunnels / underground car parks / is turned off it will continue to glow for a while at no energy cost. This would be augmented by UV LEDs underneath for night running, they will turn off when there is sunlight, the use of a glow in the dark phosphor would also make the green lines uniform. It should also be accented by a metallic green finish for bling in bright sunlight.
Neat light idea!
I love how their logo pops in the present placements on the roadster renderings. But looking at the roadster that will be born soon and looking at the next vehicle renderings. I imagine they will have some surprises with light illumination too🤞
This (above)is what I am picking up on thta might the iconic design element(s) that are/could carry forward .
Regarding that “belly”...
This may be why the roadster is so appealing and could a collectible vehicle IMO...is there a production vehicle out there thta has a “belly” ?
”Who needs ABS when you have a cute belly?!” ABS will just negatively change your aerodynamic design drag coefficient 😉
@Len Len, where did you find the listing which included future vehicles?
@vick4717 It is available for public access on the Wefunder/Aptera Website. A pdf called Aptera Investor Presentation
A great(exciting) update read!
Anti-lock Braking System?
HA😂 I think I flexed my ABS now with a laugh! Well "if I have some"
