Accelerated Composites (AC) is a private company of 15 employees based in San Diego, California that has created the Aptera - in protoype form now - a three-wheel, two-passenger hybrid that that gets 230 miles per gallon (they are aiming for 330 mpg). The company was founded in 2006 by Steve Fambro and Chris Anthony, who have backgrounds in composites, biotechnology, aerodynamics and finance.
The 3-wheeled vehicle that partly resembles a plane or a bird without wings - is catorgorized as a motorcycle. It will only be available in California when it is first introduced. The company is shooting for some sort of roll out later in 2008.
