Quotes:
San Diego-based Aptera has just unveiled a new solar-based
three-wheeler it claims doesn’t require charging—but just happens to
have a 1,000-mile battery-electric range for good measure.

The futuristic trike, which has an almost Jetsons flying car-like
aesthetic, features more than 32 square feet of solar panels that are
integrated into the body.

Preorders for the Paradigm ($29,900) and Paradigm Plus ($46,900)
opened last Friday, and both vehicles sold out in just 24 hours.
--------------------

I'm not sure if this very lightweight car would stand up to being
bashed about by large SUVs trying to push them out of the way.  ;)
So maybe it is more of a Californian town car?
