Eco-Friendly Tamarack Lake Solar-Powered Boat Concept

TheFuture — Thu, 12 Feb 2009 04:27:14 +0000

This new concept by Jason Hill and Nathan Armstrong is carrying forward the philosophy identified in Aptera 2e. This environmentally sound beauty made for zipping on the waters is a concept that Tamarack Lake Electric Company would like to be associated with. The energy variant in this boat is solar powered Loon and this giving the boat a new signature look. Also since, the twin hulls have been integrated to the deck, it is more rigid but the weight is also kept on the lower side. The best thing being that everything right from the wood to the solar panels all are made of eco friendly material. A nice and cool design though!

Ok, now close your mouth, I know that this vehicle looks amazing, in fact you can pre-order them for only $500. Aptera, the company is going to produce this vehicle for real, so this is not just concept/design that only God knows when to be available. It looks way too cool, feel like riding a UFO or flying car. It seats 2.5 with plenty of room for luggage, and can supposedly hit 60 mph in about 10 seconds with an electronically limited top speed of 95 mph.

This Aptera is also powered by an electric drive train but it is assisted by a fuel efficient gasoline powered generator which stretches your range significantly. In typical driving you may achieve over 300 miles per gallon and you will have range far beyond any passenger vehicle available today. The approximate cost of this option with all the features listed above will be $29,900.
