Many companies have come before and failed at bringing a futuristic trike to the masses. It only took Aptera five years to go from hopeful inception to disappointing liquidation (pour one out for Aptera, everyone). Elio Motors still lives in some weird limbo where it only partially exists. What makes Sondors different?

"Timing," says Storm. "Ten years ago, there was no way for us to be able to mass produce lithium ion batteries, and mass production on an affordable scale with an affordable price. Aptera and others who came before me... they were just early."

There are a lot of "woulds," "hopefullys" and "coulds" here, though, and Sondors has some ways to go before this dream starts moving closer to reality. One of its StartEngine websites says Round 2 of funding is set at a $20 million goal, and another asks $2 million specifically to build the final production model. I'm incredibly curious what a production-spec Sondors EV will look or drive like. Even though the prototype was the equivalent of an alpha tester, it still piqued my interest and tickled my imagination enough to want to keep a close eye on its progress.
