i remember when in a magazine (Popular Science?) It had the original Aptera on the cover with "300mpg vehicle" on it. It was supposed to be either a plug-in hybrid or EV depending on your options. I also vaguely recall the very first prototype having a diesel engine.

According to those at Aptera they'd only use polycarbonate if they could find a coating that makes it as good as glass.
