Electrify America LLC, the largest open DC fast charging network in the U.S., is investing more than $2 billion in Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) infrastructure, education and access. The investment will enable millions of Americans to discover the benefits of electric driving and support the build-out of a nationwide network of ultra-fast community and highway chargers that are convenient and reliable. Electrify America expects to have more than 1,800 total charging stations with over 10,000 chargers in the United States and Canada by 2026. During this period, the company will be expanding to 49 states and the District of Columbia, supporting increased ZEV adoption with a network that is comprehensive, technologically advanced and customer friendly.

What if we told you that you could charge your vehicle just by parking it in the sun? This idea is no longer just on the pages of science fiction– we’re making this a reality. Leading the solar revolution, Aptera is the first SEV that requires no charging for most daily use.
How is this possible? Aptera uses the sun to enhance its range and charging options. Aptera can charge up to 40 miles a day from its solar cells alone. This solar energy is conserved by Aptera’s aerodynamic design–fundamentally solving significant energy loss from drag. In other words, Aptera only uses 1/3 of the energy of a typical EV, charges 4x as fast, and gets 4x more mileage per battery charge. Our top battery range gives drivers 1,000 miles per charge – and that's on top of the 40 miles per day from solar charging.
What does this mean for people and the planet? Each Aptera member can reduce their carbon footprint by 14,000 pounds of CO2 per year. We’re also making clean transportation more accessible and more affordable to communities where EV charging infrastructure is sparse. With a less prohibitive price point and freedom from electric chargers, we’re starting a revolution, transforming transportation for everyone–for generations to come.
