Self generating solar powered car Lightyear one
The Lightyear 0 is an all-electric four-door equipped with an array of over 50 square feet of solar panels on its hood and roof that the Dutch startup says can generate up to 43 miles-worth of electricity per day.
Several electric vehicles have been sold over the years with small solar panels, but none that provided a substantial amount of range. Lightyear bills it as the first series-production solar-powered car and suggests a typical driver could use it nearly every day on solar power alone.
