The fact you've got a Mazdaspeed 3 tells me you probably also pay more attention to your driving than the average person. Don't forget there's a LOT that can be done in that department that will vastly improve efficiency.

Thanks for the reference. I checked out a good bit of information on the Aptera. The fact that it sits a bit high seemed like an odd choice, but very interesting. If they could arrange to fit a third person... and at $26K, much better than a Tesla. Their use of solar was "standard" with concept cars to power accessories. I would like to see increased solar for charging the batteries. My car sits in the sun for 9 hours a day, seems like it could be soaking up energy. Maybe it is of little help for the amount of charge motor needs.
Thanks again.
