The Aptera Paradigm electric car has only three wheels, an ultra-light body and a design that resembles that of airplanes. In addition, thanks to the solar panels it promises to never be recharged. The electric car has already received over 7,000 bookings, on the other hand, it has closed a new round of financing for 4 million dollars.
The figure is rather low for a car manufacturer, but according to the US company, the new factory in the Californian Sorrento Valley will start producing this electric vehicle by the end of the year.
The ultralight body is made of carbon fibre, kevlar and hemp and has such extreme aerodynamics that it really looks like a small road plane. Just the wings are missing. In the normal version, it reaches 400 kilometres on a single charge, in the Plus version it reaches up to 1,600 kilometres of autonomy.
