You might have already heard about Swampy evaporative coolers.
!12 Volt Portable Air Conditioners plus Evaporative Swamp Coolers.
Back here in Brazil evaporative cooling is popular among truckers, there are some companies manufacturing automotive units to be mounted on roof hatches. I've already seen few cars also using it, but since it increases the drag I'd avoid to get a roof-mounted one in a compact vehicle.
Some folks still object to evaporative cooling because it requires water, but considering that it doesn't use any GHG as a regular A/C does it's an advantage
