Aptera Paradigm
Closed in 2011, the company Aptera suddenly announced itself, introducing a new product-a three-wheeled "solar" electric car that does not need to be recharged. According to representatives of the company, the new model, equipped with a battery of 100 kWh, is able to overcome the mileage of 1600 km.
The presented electric car is designed to carry the driver, passenger and pet. It is powered by solar panels on the roof, which provide a daily run of up to 75 km. According to Aptera co-founder Chris Anthony, the built-in battery ensures that the battery is constantly recharged, which in turn guarantees up to 17,700 km of mileage over the course of a year.

The electric car is light and has excellent aerodynamics with a drag coefficient of 0.13 (for comparison, the Tesla Model 3 has 0.23, and the Volkswagen ID 0.28). The front-wheel-drive version accelerates to 100 km/h in 5.5 seconds, while the three – wheeled all-wheel-drive version accelerates in 3.5 seconds. Pre-orders for the Aptera Paradigm and Paradigm Plus models are already available at prices ranging from $ 25,900 to $ 46,000. Deliveries will begin next year.
