This specific car feels a bit like a gimmick but I feel we're on a trend to putting solar and batteries everywhere and at some point soon along that progress putting lightweight panels on the top of delivery vans and goods trucks will be normal in sunny climates. Refrigerated loads are a particular sweet spot. | |||||||||||||||||

Real world test results show up to 46 miles per day on a sunny day. No plugging in, no gas, just park it in the sun and your battery charges. | |||||||||||||||||
