I think only renders at the moment. Aptera has said that changes or additions can be made to the preorders when the time gets closer and better information is available. If you decide you want them then I think it will be no problem to update your order.
That pet package doesn't really look like much thought has been put into it. (Early days, I know) That step ladder will be intimidating to most pooches. Maybe some sort of flat platform that can be stored along the side of the cargo area, but can be temporarily cantilevered off the rear wheel skirt to make climbing in a two-jump process? Seems more consistent with how dogs gain altitude.
The pre-order contract (on the sales page) notes that you can change your order up until the moment before the vehicle ships - and that, once delivered, you have 7 days (or 1000 miles) to return the vehicle, no-questions-asked.
I do know the front seat back flips forward so???? Maybe some come in and out that way.
But I imagine an “aptera” kit would fit well and may have the logo,etc????
I personally think.....If I am going to carry the weight and take up a space for a pet ladder.....why not have a foldable, say ...zero gravity lounge chair that can lock in a ramp position to allow a dog to walk up yet it can be used as a longe chair too! They will refine.... and aftermarket typically follow.
I have a rough working zero gravity lounge chair “under conversion” but without the vehicle and measurements. I will not pursue until I have one
Safety for the dog and vehicle are paramount !
I am a retired inventor ( and safety lead) but will never stop trying or encourage others to make the next thing/iteration !
I have owned several dogs and each can be different as to what they like to do/ walk on😔 when young and age
And regardless of design the ( level/ uneven) ground... i.e., how the ground point can stabilize....can make or break it. And even scare the dog!

Right!
Only these renderings
