What do you think about Solar/Gas Powered cars?
Here is my idea…
What if the roofs of our cars had solar panels that generated electricity during the day, and then by night or when it’s too dark to effeciently use the solar power, the car automatically switched to gas power?
We’re spending so much money on these unsuccessful attempts to create a different kind of gas, but why don’t we focus on other ways to conserve energy that we know works?
This idea wouldn’t eliminate the use of gas entirely but it would certianly lower the demand by a large percentage! Which in turn would lower the gas prices! Why hasn’t anyone else thought of this yet? Or if they have, will you please tell me where I can find more information about it?

There was one built and the auto industries took it off the market back several years ago. Made all the papers. I think G M bought the guys Patten.
Solar cells are not efficient.
They need to constantly be kept clean.
They are very fragile.
The cost of placing solar panels on your car would be worth more than most cars. Typical solar panels to cover a car would cost on the order of about $15K. They would be stolen off your car before your car got stolen.
