Even if you were able to collect 100% of the insolation hitting the car it's still a fraction of the power in a battery pack. Unfortunately the car won't be at the optimal angle and in full sun most of the time either so it'll still be at best 10 or so miles a day probably and even that requires way better cells than we have now. There's not really a way around the need to charge from a larger power source, at best there's the option to charge from your home solar. https://www.solar-electric.com/learning-center/solar-insolation-maps.html/#Map1 https://www.solar-electric.com/learning-center/solar-insolat...
