Behind the driver and passenger seats there appears to be ample room for general cargo stowage but I cannot find any comments or information on where the placement of cables, adapter connectors and general maintenance tools are to be placed where they can be accessed for the day to day operation of the vehicle. It may have already been considered but possibly the small space at the front of the vehicle could have a small frunk that could accomodate these items, freeing up valuable space in the rear.

The backpack, on the back of the seats,
mentioned in one of the videos “ may “ be a place but not sure how much space each provide
A frunk would be nice if it fits, but there should be very little need to carry much of the stuff mentioned:
For my own BEV's "day to day operation of the vehicle", the one required cable never even goes in the car, but instead stays plugged into my garage's standard wall outlet, ready for me to just plug into the car when I get home & just unplug from the car when I leave.
This is standard procedure for many drivers with a garage outlet. Others leave a 240V unit plugged in & keep the OEM cord somewhere like under the car's seat "for emergencies". However that's virtually useless, since it's pretty hard to find a public standard wall outlet for it, compared to finding a free public 240V unit that plugs straight into the car.
"General maintenance tools" also stay in my garage, where they get very little use on a BEV. The only tools I feel worthy of carrying in the car are the under-seat flat-fix kit, a little portable jump-starter, & a crescent wrench. The latter is to fix a computer glitch by disconnecting the 12V battery to reboot it if a stop/start cycle or 3 doesn't work. I've had to do that one time in over 5 years, during which time I've never heard of a BEV roadside failure that's DIY-doable that those few tools wouldn't fix.
I would also carry any tools required for a reboot using the HV drive battery disconnect, since that has sometimes been the fix, but my 500e needs no tools for that, just flip up the back seat bottom, unclip the cover & pull the plug.
I only want space for a 50 foot level 1 cord. I'd only carry it on a several times a year road trips. Half my stops are to visit friends and staying for a couple days. Perfect to run a cord under the garage door.
@Lance from Jerome you can get a extension cord holder for about $4 at Home Depot.
@Tim Dean (15565) What's an extension cord holder? Look, the deal is I don't want to SEE it floating around on the rear deck or stuffed under a seat, wrapped up or not. I'm not worried. I'm a resourceful person. If Aptera doesn't provide a cubby hole for such things, I'll find my own space in the frunk or similar.
