I hear and feel for my international friends on this topic but I am sure Aptera is listening as you are an important market who appreciated what they have created for us all!
I don’t have the confinement issues around parking in my life/travels these days (and I am the type of person that parks his vehicle in an open area of a parking lot and enjoys the walk to and from the store ( Sorry honey!) But does this offer any reduction of anxiety for just this one complaint parking alongside a curb?
i.e. if you have the higher Off Road wheel cover?
The idea is to clip on a bright color reflective retractable stanchion strap on the outdide wheel cover, pulling the strap to tail of the vehicle “ If you still have worries”???
Pull inside wheel up put just on the curb if space allows.
I realize this doesn’t help in many other parking situations...
Should not be a problem if the front wheel gets sheared off. As long as the mounts on the frame of the car are not damaged, It would be an easy task to replace the control arms and hub motor, especially if Aptera provides right to repair. I bet the damage to the Hummer would be lot less, but would not be surprised if it's more costly. Any body damage to the Hummer would be far more difficult and costly to repair, and you would not really have the option of repairing it yourself, unless you have your own paint / body shop or have been monkey wrenching on vehicles since your teens. I am hoping that Aptera designs a weak link in the A arms to allow for the wheel to shear off without damage to the body/frame mounts. That may be pie in the sky right now, since development, manufacturing, and sales are the primary goals. Cheers.
