Safety features like airbags, anti-lock brakes and stability control aren't lacking, but convenience items like air conditioning may be optional.
Flattrack claims, "It meets all US safety standards."

I'm liking all the push for hyper milage. The Aptera is supposed to be coming out this year too. Very exciting
