Aptera launched a video a few days ago to announce how far along it is in the process of starting production, since the company has pledged to begin delivering vehicles to customers before the end of this year. However, in the same video, Aptera’s chief of design, Jason Hill, announced that the three-wheeler EV would get a half-wheel, basically a yoke like the one Tesla equips its Model S and Model X with.
This video is our best look at what will probably become the Aptera’s production interior. The company has decided to add a driver’s display, in order to compliment the large central infotainment screen - this smaller display appears to show the feed from exterior a pair of rear-facing cameras; speed and other pieces of information are still currently displayed on the central screen.
Regarding the yoke, Aptera seems to think that the use of the yoke is more efficient than a traditional wheel and that it results in a better user experience. Hill’s words make it sound as if it’s a superior solution (which we still argue it is not), but it does allow a completely unobstructed view of the driver’s display.
