Progress in Carlsbad!

[Kerbe]

Things are moving right along at Aptera headquarters in Carlsbad, CA, where more validation prototypes are being assembled. The black bits are Carbon Fiber Sheet Molding Compound (CFSMC), the white bits are Fiberglass Sheet Molding Compound (FGSMC) and the aluminum-colored bits are, well, aluminum reinforcements. These completed body structures will then be mounted to an internal aluminum chassis that carries the suspension, drivetrain and batteries before the aluminum underbody panels are added.

I assume they didn't neglect to show any vehicles on the nascent production line. Will there shortly be 4 more running Apteras?
