Yeah, it has a small market, but people who want one REALLY want one. So I expect that if they can ever get production figured out they'll sell as fast as they can be made for a short time, then they'd better move on to a new design if they want to stay around. Or, sell some of the solutions they built to other manufacturers. I think i've seen them selling their lightweight, flexible solar panels to another manufacturer.
carbon fiber bicycles can shatter on impact. i wonder whats different on apteras body panels?
