There's a lot going on for Aptera while we close out our first crowdfunding!
We hope everyone is well and taking care of themselves, their family, and their friends during these trying times. For Aptera, not much has changed with our development plans as our engineering groups are small and spread out over San Diego, LA, Reno, and Canada. Our engineering is running smoothly, and our mold and part building continues. The only delays we’ve seen have been in the delivery of materials for these efforts, which may get worse over the coming weeks and months but are not significant right now. We still expect to be testing our development vehicles by summer. And we will be showing them off in due course on our way to production by the end of the year.
The first hood parts have been resin infused in our new molds and we have our new nosecone mold finished.
Also, we’ve refined and locked down our suspension design for our development vehicles. This means we will have improved handling, turning radius, and stability over our previous designs.
We are so thankful for the almost 1,000 investors we have now and know we can welcome more to the Aptera family over the next 10 days. Please share our story where you can and thank you for all your support!

Thanks for the support and the investment, Nicky!
Many pieces to get to the prize. Congrats on the 1k investor level and this news!
And glad your “lock down”, a term used associated with negative things of late.... is only positive with your reported “lock down” of Aptera’s improved suspension design for the development vehicles, while progressing you through your plan. Nice to get a boost with positive news!
Yes, Be Well and Power On, while the world gets through these trying times.
Thanks, Leonard! We're just getting started but the tooling and design finalization is going nicely! Be well and thanks for the support and investment!
Glad to hear that you are making changes to make this EV even greater. Looking forward to seeing to it on the highway.
Thanks for the support and the investment, James!
Ground-breaking and exciting.
Thanks for the support and the investment, Michael!
Thanks for the update
Thanks for the support and the investment, John!
Welcome back! Are there many lessons learned from the earlier models, with regards to the design? I was pretty obsessed back in 2007 with the first iteration. I’m a diehard fan and can’t wait to see this dream happen.
Mark, there are WAY too many lessons that we've carried into this new design. From aerodynamics to batteries to suspension to ergonomics to the storage to sound isolation, they have all been greatly improved ;) Thanks for the long time support and the investment!
I too, am a longtime fan of this vehicle. Can’t wait to introduce it to the Northwest!!!
Excellent update. Looking forward to more great news in the future.
Thanks for the support and the investment, Robert!
