    An electric car that can harvest solar energy on the road has completed its first major road trip before production starts.

    The US designed Aptera was driven by Co-CEO Steve Fambro from Flagstaff, Arizona, along Route 66 to Imperial Valley, California a distance of 480 km.

    The car has solar panels on the sweeping roof and bonnet.

    Aptera says this journey represents a major step in validating its systems in real-world conditions.

    The company says the journey represents a major step in validating its systems in real-world conditions before factory production begins.

    The two-seater is designed to go up to 64 km per day without needing to plug in to recharge, thanks to 700 watts of solar panels along the roof and hood.

    A launch edition that will arrive first comes with a 640 km battery pack for traditional plug-in charging with a 610-km battery as an option.

    The Aptera has a lightweight carbon fibre composite body and aerodynamic design for an ultra low drag coefficient to help its frugal power use.

    It can hit a top speed of 162 km with a 150-kW electric drivetrain.

    The company says it has up to 48,000 vehicle reservations, with the launch model priced at $40,000 USD.

    It plans to begin producing a small number of units this year, and ramp up to building 20,000 cars a year by 2027.

    An electric car that can harvest solar energy on the road has completed its first major road trip before production starts.

    The US designed Aptera was driven by Co-CEO Steve Fambro from Flagstaff, Arizona, along Route 66 to Imperial Valley, California a distance of 480 km.

    The car has solar panels on the sweeping roof and bonnet.

    Aptera says this journey represents a major step in validating its systems in real-world conditions.

    The company says the journey represents a major step in validating its systems in real-world conditions before factory production begins.

    The two-seater is designed to go up to 64 km per day without needing to plug in to recharge, thanks to 700 watts of solar panels along the roof and hood.

    A launch edition that will arrive first comes with a 640 km battery pack for traditional plug-in charging with a 610-km battery as an option.

    The Aptera has a lightweight carbon fibre composite body and aerodynamic design for an ultra low drag coefficient to help its frugal power use.

    It can hit a top speed of 162 km with a 150-kW electric drivetrain.

    The company says it has up to 48,000 vehicle reservations, with the launch model priced at $40,000 USD.

    It plans to begin producing a small number of units this year, and ramp up to building 20,000 cars a year by 2027.
