> The fact that this is not already normal is insane. I don't know anyone who would want to buy the car in that article. I know plenty of people who have EVs, and I have one too, and still I don't think a single one of my EV-owning friends would buy that car. It's too compromised. What makes a lot more sense is to put the solar panels on your roof and use them to charge a normal EV, all of which are better at being cars than this thing is. Doing so can also reduce your power bills, heat a swimming pool, and even charge a battery that can power your house during grid outages. Solar power is great! But the panels don't need to be attached to the car to be useful. That's why this is not already normal.
