Great news! ??
We're proud to announce that - in our continuing effort to advance #FutureMobility - TELO Trucks is partnering with Aptera Motors to offer #TELO buyers the choice of up to three solar-powered enhancements. ??
Designed to extend our mighty, mini-truck’s #sustainability profile and enhance its capabilities, these options include:
- Rooftop Truck Cab #Solar Paneling – Integrated panels over the cab maximize daily energy generation. ?
- Tonneau Truck Bed Cover #SolarPaneling – A solar-equipped bed cover adds power while preserving storage versatility. ?
- Camper Shell Solar Paneling – Panels extending from the cab over the bed increase charging capacity and storage options. ?
This partnership combines Aptera’s expertise with TELO’s innovative design, ensuring seamless integration and maximum performance.
Jason Marks – CEO and Co-Founder of TELO – notes, “Whether buyers are looking for a #commute vehicle, a safer, #sustainability focused family vehicle, a rugged, dependable pickup truck to adventure #outdoors, or a highly-functional #FleetVehicle that increases their business’s efficiency, TELO continues to be a first-in-class automotive option to satisfy the many needs of car buyers.”
Hot of the heels of unveiling heir groundbreaking technology at #CES2025, Aptera is a trailblazer in solar-powered commuter vehicles. Their solar panels generate up to 200 watts each at peak sunlight, delivering 1-2 kWh per day based on location and season. Using a glass-glass configuration ensures optimal efficiency and durability. TELO #Trucks consume just 200-300 Wh/mi, significantly reducing energy needs and extending range with solar options. Ideal for adventurers and daily drivers alike, this technology enhances TELO’s sustainability and delivers freedom from the grid. ??
Steve Fambro, Co-Founder & Co-CEO of Aptera, adds “Our unique curved solar cell design makes it the perfect application to propel automotive utility further than ever before. Together with TELO, we’re harnessing the power of the sun to make life off the grid a reality for everyone by putting the sun to work for them.”
With our latest offering of #solarpower charging, the TELO team continues to redefine the possibilities of #EV ownership.
TELO and Aptera will make these solar panel options available to add to pre-orders later this year. The fully realized drivable prototype is currently in production at ARIA GROUP, which joined forces with TELO in 2024 after a successful $5.4M strategic funding round led by Neo and Spero Ventures.
