I'm not against Aptera; the car is an efficiency marvel.

I'm just realistic... the point of a car isn't to be efficient. The point of a car is to move people and their things in comfort and safety. Whenever something is designed around x exclusively, it comes at the expense of y and z.

I would proudly build and unveil the Aptera as my college science experiment. I'd have no expectation of creating a successful business that manufactures them.
