How often will I need to charge my Aptera if I live in a sunny state?
If you live in a sunny state, you may find yourself needing to charge your Aptera only a few times a year. The integrated solar system acts as a continuous trickle charger, topping up the battery throughout the day. For example, if your daily driving averages around 40 miles, solar charging alone may cover most of your needs, significantly reducing the need to plug in. Data from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) confirms solar energy potential in these areas, though actual results can vary depending on seasonal sunlight and daily driving habits.
