Tiktoker Presents Aptera Motors' Solar Car That Runs 1,000 Miles on a Single Charge
Solar cars can run for months without a recharge by harnessing power from the sun.
Forrest Jones, an influencer, reviewed Aptera's solar car laced with solar panels on the hood, dashboard, roof, and a back hatch which can be equipped with more.
Because of the solar panels the car can travel up to 40 miles a day on clean sun energy.
The car is made up of a lightweight composite body and gives it a drag coefficient of just 0.13, making it less than half of the average drag coefficient of modern cars.
The vehicle has a highest range of 1,000 miles per charge, somewhat made possible by its lightweight body.
Aptera's solar car costs from $25,900 to $46,000-plus, depending on the model.
Tiktok Commenters have been super impressed by the car's design and features, with some calling it a "cool car" and a "dream car."
Forrest Jones is seen answering questions from commenters, including the vehicle's top speed (allegedly 110 miles per hour) and if it's highway legal (yes).
Aptera has begun taking preorders on their website, with production set to kickstart by late 2023.
