2010 Aptera 2e

2010 Aptera 2e design review

​            When you think of the Jetsons you think of flying pod like cars which fold up to form a briefcase.  Well, the 2010 Aptera 2e may not be able to form a briefcase but it is a pod car.  Yes, this company is serious about this design, so serious that it will be coming to the market sometime within 2010.  

      The Aptera is one of those brainchild cars hatched out of the X-prize for the creation of production capable electric car.  Now the only thing we could say about the 2e is that it is a car that should have been put on the back burner for another 50 years.  First of all, it is a pod car and well that really is not the coolest idea out there.  Maybe for some of those brainless superstars this may be a cool, but for the rest of the thinking world this is something that should not be.  Next, they should have done away with the rear fin.  This is one thing that really is something from the 1950’s and should not be out now.
