I have often wondered why no one puts solar panels on cars. When I was young, I went to a GM open house, my dad worked at the Trenton plant. They had that miniature model with the solar panels. They would put a spotlight over it and the car reverse up so loud that you had to cover your ears. Nothing ever came of it.

The model you witnessed is interesting Jim. I have wondered the same thing. (Why are they not putting solar panels on vehicles). I remember the Moon Rover and how it was explained it worked by solar panels. That is why I said, it?s about time! lol.
Now if this report is accurate and about 40 miles a day can be achieved with this set up (not counting the almost 400 mile initial full charge, Even the average rural commuter should not need a plug in charge on sunny days. This car is interesting in my opinion.

Almost anything is possible if cost is not a limiting factor. That is why we got to the moon first.
Back in Edison's day he had an electric car with a range of 1000 miles. It used a Sodium Ion battery. I do wonder why they don't just build the entire body out of solar panel material. There is a lot of energy wasted when you're parked in the sun...
Good point Mr Bush.. Agreed
