Elon Musk has tweeted that Tesla will open the Supercharging network to other EV manufacturers later this year. If you are on the fence about purchasing an Aptera does this influence your decision?

Tesla has stated that they are going to charge much more for slow charging cars at their Superchargers, hopefully Aptera gets the message that they need to put in a decent charger instead of the 50KW charger that they are planning. Tesla is absolutely right to have this policy, it's about maximizing throughput. You can't have 50KW cars hogging a Supercharger for an hour, cars need to be able to charge in 15-20 minutes so that someone else can charge their car.
@Joshua Rosen I think it's more a case of trying to dissipate the heat from faster charging rather than the cost of installing a faster charging setup.
