The car of the future is almost here?

Aptera Motors, a Southern California startup, is on target to deliver “an ultra-efficient, high-mileage vehicle without sacrificing comfort and safety” to Californians by October 2009!

“The 2e is an all-electric three-wheeled two-seater that gets the equivalent of 200 mpg and goes 100 miles on a charge. A lithium-ion battery powers an electric motor that can propel the car from zero to 60 in less than 10 seconds on its way to a top speed of 90 mph.”

Personally, I’m not a fan of the design. I guess we’ll see if it has mass appeal.

And apparently the first models will be classified as motorcycles…

But I doubt a parking garage would charge a motorcycle rate. And it doesn’t look like two of these could fit in an on-street spot.

Either way, I am interested to see if this does come out this year!
