Imagine this thing with a modern dashboard and seats. Sick as hell.

I don’t think it’d pass crash testing.

I really like Aptera but they're totally focused on the US.

On street parking in the UK allows a minimum of 1.8m (70 inches).

Parking spaces a more sensible 2.4m (95 inches) wide

The Aptera is 88 inches wide. So it will leave 3.5 inches either side in a modern car park.

Or stick out just the front axle a foot and a half. Which is low to the ground and will get clattered by a bus. (Then driving off not reporting no doubt.)

So I could get very good at parking but still not have anywhere to park in town at any time it's busy.

I was going to invest until I saw the width, ultimately I still want one but it couldn't be my daily driver. My work carpark is always full and a lot of the spaces are old and painted at 2.3 meters.

That's before you consider country roads in Europe and how many diversions or additional sitting in traffic would be necessary.

You could potentially park diagonally on the road spaces with the rear able to go further in.

Just not for me. Nor is any car designed for the American market, they're all too big.

Each battery had a capacity of 250 ampere hours.

This car has a battery about the size of 10 to 20 power banks.
