Alternative Energy Transportation videos: Aptera and Tesla

“Recharging Transportation” offers viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the innovative California-based startup, Aptera Motors.  Entrepreneurs Steve Fambro and Chris Anthony set out with a clean sheet of paper to design the most efficient alternative energy vehicle possible – And the result is the Aptera 2e, an electric vehicle capable of travelling over 161 kilometres on a single charge.  Aptera Motors, and other new energy startups like it, are answering the energy challenges today and helping to provide clean technology jobs to the next generation of autoworkers.

“Tomorrow’s Transportation” is a short teaser video that features alternative energy automobiles from Aptera (www.aptera.com), Tesla (www.teslamotors.com), and the West Philly EVX Team (www.evxteam.org).  The video illustrates that the next generation of alternative energy vehicles are already taking to the streets and providing new jobs for clean technology autoworkers.

The auto industry is one of the largest causes of cancer. Every gas pump has a sign on it that says so. The current auto industry is corrupt, controls congress and does things that hurt our society. It is bad. The NEW auto industry is comprised of 48 new electric car companies. They have been stopped, blockaded and delayed at every turn by Detroit, the oil lobby and elected officials that are in their pockets. The NEW auto industry can replace every single job that the old auto industry is losing! But congress is delaying letting the new auto industry get started and the gap in the cross over is going to cost hundreds of millions to our economy. There are over 6 federal funds to launch the NEW car industry but all applicants to those funds have been frozen in their tracks, some for almost 5 years. An early stage venture cannot afford to wait even weeks, much less months or years. The bad guys know that they can kill off every new car company simply by saying: “Oh yes we will review that right quick” but then just putting them in a drawer and waiting until all if their staff quits from inaction and non-payment. No VC or bank will fund a car company, they do not understand them and so they shun them. The only way a new car company can get funded is through federal funds and the good-old-boys know this. If you are a citizen, you need to call and write your elected officials and remind them of the results of inaction: they will get voted out of office and their political party will fail… unless you like getting cancer…

I wish to compare performance and price of the
various electric cars available – your website
does not do this – pity.
