But when Aptera asked us if we'd like to come down to San Diego and drive its latest prototype - Gamma - for ourselves, we couldn't say no. But while our ultimate impressions of Aptera Gamma were excellent, our day didn't start quite as we'd hoped... ---- 00:00 - Sponsor shoutout 00:12 - Introduction 00:28 - Montage 01:05 - Aptera - Reminder 01:57 - Initial Thoughts 06:04 - Aptera Gamma Breaks Down 06:14 - Why it broke down - CEO Chris Anthony 07:04 - Second Part - A completely different experience! 12:05 - Biker Reaction 13:39 - Energy Sage Sponsored Segment. 14:37 - Final Thoughts 15:32 - Thanks and Goodbye!

The video was cut, edited, colored in just a day and a half.
