I'm in favor of the Aptera too. A lot of people on this forum are willing to trade "relative" safety for MPG. For that reason I want Aptera to succeed within the current regulatory framework that exists in the USA. That means being able to prove some level of safety in relation to other vehicles. I wouldn't care if the Aptera got a 3 or 4 star rating, as long as it was willing to publish it's crash test results.
Reverse trikes like the Raptor already exist in if you can afford the exorbitant prices. They don't pretend to be daily commuters because they are open to the climate and are geared towards performance enthusiasts.
Hmmmm, maybe Aptera should look into exporting their vehicles ...
