I definitely read these sentences too quickly: "Hyundai added that 30% to 60% of the car’s battery could be charged using the solar technology. With six hours of charge per day, the vehicle could increase travel distances by 1,300 kilometers per year."
I read those as charging 30-60% of the battery with six hours of charge per day, but I see now that it's six hours a day for 3.5 kilometers per day, and that 30-60% of the battery totally can be charged. Meaning that a car left in the sun for a long period of time can never exceed 30-60% charge.
My bad. Your breakdown makes it more clear that this car is in the same range as my Prius, just marketing the result differently.
