Because Landrover Defenders have the aerodynamic efficiency of a brick. 🧱. With the Model X they also thought about efficiency. Maybe it is just me, I did not expect it. Let's say you design great tiny houses with all kinds of extraordinandry space saving ideas and as the designer live a mansion.
Eh, maybe they're just car people. And there are not a lot of great EV choices for SUVs yet (especially if you do need to tow). Aerodynamically a Defender probably isn't much worse than any other large SUV in that segment lol. They are all bricks in comparison to the Aptera.
I do wonder, what would an Aptera SUV look like? Totally alien compared to any other SUV. I'd love to see a render of an aerodynamically optimized SUV (to the extreme of the Aptera). How efficient could you make an SUV sized vehicle? 150mpge? 200?
Fail to see the relationship. I drive a Model X and I have an Aptera reservation.

Chris also has a sport boat company and probably needs the Landrover as a tow vehicle. Both of the Aptera founders drive EVs as their daily drivers.
I am talking about Jason Hill. I believe Chris drives a model S.
Oh, I think you are right. Steve also has an electric. Why don't you ask him?
