It seems like solar film would be the way to go. they can be integrated into body modifications relatively easily I would think and are not obtrusive as far as aerodynamics are concerned.
I do agree that the solar cells SHOULD outlast my (or any other) car's life expectancy. But, this of course, isn't really a problem, because if your car is ca ca anyway, it would be easy to re-purpose them elsewhere. You make a very good point though. It certainly would be important to have these concepts at the forefront of one's mind during design.
Yes. This "alternator" off concept is near what I was conceptualizing. Is this what the prius does with its solar panel? Is this turning the alternator "off" or just assisting it?
Thanks
