Tesla is still a viable concept albeit struggling with financing. He built them, sold them and they run...all in an extremely short period of time. His plans for a manufactory need more financing or he will collapse. Not to say his product was not well received nor did he fail to build any. I understand he sold the first production run 0f 300 cars and then improved the design and began building a factory...bad move maybe. He might still be able to continue the first model but he will still need more money. Funny how GM jumped on that lithium-ion battery concept almost immediately.
The Aptera and Flying Car have been around for quite awhile and are literally and figuratively going NOWHERE...no one is copying them either. Just watch them carefully and lets see who goes to jail first.
