I'd skip the solar and go directly to I.C. to exploit the low drag.The shape of the car is the hot ticket.
Compared to a Cd 0.30 car today,Cd 0.12 would hand you a 36% mpg improvement at 70 mph.
I realize it can't be done,but an individual could do it.
With Korff's cooling system and camera 'mirrors' we could shave it to below 0.10.
Wouldn't want to do it! 200 mpg Tata Nano CX.
