Adios Aptera?

Autoweek online has speculated that Aptera is about to close its doors because the long-time troubled EV maker is returning customer deposits. Autoweek is about a year behind everyone elso on this prediction, as the unusual EV architecture and rumored leadership issues have plagued Aptera early in its history. Unlike Tesla, Fisker, Toyata, et al, Aptera choose a design that maximizes range at highway speeds and ignored conventional wisdom that EV technology currently favors city use – i.e., short range practicality.
