Come on future!

I've talked about Aptera before and their forthcoming Typ-1 fully electric vehicle. It's been a while since they've made any news and I was beginning to wonder if they might have become a casualty of our current financial climate.

Apparently they've been hard at work at a complete rework of the Typ-1 that they were showing off previously. I was under the impression that the Typ-1 was ready for limited production and sale but it looks like that was not the case.

Here's a comparison picture of the previous Typ-1 and the forthcoming "production" Typ-1. It appears that the overall size of the vehicle has increased....my guess is they needed more space for batteries. There was a rumor that they were not hitting their range estimates in the previous configuration.
