More Paint colors

One thing that is a bit worrisome about the color is long term - most vehicle wraps are meant to only last 2-5 years.

i guess aptera is doing something with a third party, because aptera advertising personalized wraps as a option is advertisement for 3rd party who specializes in wraping. most people dont know wrapping even exists as easily replaceable alternative to normal painting, so telling customers they have the option is a level of advertising in itself. third party can also bet customers would like to change their wrap for fun after their first experience, customers could contact through aptera so they dont have to keep website or phone number of multiple 3rd parties for services like this, here another example of 3rd party cutting cost of standard aptera car: https://www.aptera.us/forum/main/comment/60803bbba6356400159e09aa.

the third party probably has some sort of online visualization website or something for customers to design their wrap under different light conditions, angles of appearance etc.

Since wraps are being used, do they have to be a single color wrap? I would love something like the Chevy Bel Air.

that's a good one Len! It's ever ready thanks to the sun

Like a "Copper Top Battery?"😉

It is a vinyl wrap like 3M’s product but I have read a confirmation what will be used in production.

But if that....should be more like ten years, With care who knows?how long.

I used a 3M clear wrap over a painted surface, which I used for my interstate road driving to protect from debris. That old substrate held up very well for me over eleven years ,driving a minimum of five days a week and 100 mikes a day:

But not the same product, which I trust would have improved over the decades

First I would say that no matter where you park it or what color finish you choose you will not have any trouble finding your Aptera. Just look for the crowd of people standing around a single vehicle. Second, as I understand it, the finish will be a wrap rather than a paint job. So you could order just about anything, even a chrome finish, and Aptera should be able to accommodate your request. So the extra fee for special order materials is not really that bad.

People have suggested that a Wrap may be used to get more than the original 3 color schemes. But, a wrap seems to have about a 5 year life, and that may be if your lucky. Also, you want to be letting it sit outside for charging. The UV would probably not be good for the wrap. So, its not an option I would want. My current car is 10 yrs old, and the paint still looks great. I would like a wrap on the nose to protect from debris hitting it.

I dont know how they get the color. Is it added to the composite? IF so, seems pretty easy. Same if its painted. Anyone Not guessing ? But according to the image above, they had to get some color on it in some way.

I really like the Pearl Yellow I saw. Peral green. Hell, Peral almost any color.

I too have colour vision issues but I love orange so would go for some variant on this.

Also updated this image for another post...I think it's green XD LOL

Brighter colours seem like a really good contrast.

@junk Aptera isn't painted - the composite shell is integrally white and the solar top panels are black. The colors they are offering are wraps - and custom colors are available at additional cost.

Since Solar collectors are affixed to the TOP HALF of the body shell it is probably best to avoid covering the Solar Collectors with body wrap. So, am I correct in thinking that only the lower half of the body-shell can be color wrapped?😉

I kind of like Henry Fords words "You can get it in any color you like as long as it's black"

Hi

Custom colors are in the options which you work out with Aptera when you reservation comes up to build. Same if you need a custom interiors

The Aptera body is Vinyl Wrap and not painted
