Solar panels on an electric
Solar panels on an electric car is a cool idea, and it was already employed in the Fisker Karma, and will be again in the reborn Karma Revero. But the power generated is relatively small compared with the power used to drive the car any real distance, and it might also give people the wrong impression that the car can actually be run off of the onboard solar panels. Still, it is a huge visual sign that the car is electric powered, and a reminder that EVs can use renewable energy.
