Very much so, it also increases the weight, and given what solar panels produce, you're probably not making out the difference.
Lightyear advertised a best case of 70km (44 miles) per day from panels, best case, out of 5sqm of fully integrated curved solar panels and a Cd of 0.175.
And then it was cancelled (and back-named a proof of concept, I'm sure the 2 years delay and unit price going from an original 175k estimate to 250k didn't help). Supposedly they've started work on a more reasonably priced model, ETA 2025.
