Part 3/9:
Sam recounts his visit to Aptera’s factory in California, where he pre-ordered a three-wheeled solar-powered electric car. Aptera’s vehicle boasts an innovative design that allows it to charge its battery through solar energy while driving. This groundbreaking technology represents a significant step toward harnessing renewable energy directly from personal vehicles, as drivers could potentially recharge without the need for traditional charging stations.
Aptera’s journey has involved extensive research and the development of proprietary solar coverings, a process he describes as labor-intensive yet rewarding. The ability to drive a car that can draw power directly from the sun is a compelling vision that he believes should be adopted by more automakers.
