In all this talk of electric cars, I've come to the realization that Tesla et al have missed one neat trick: Solar panels. More specifically, on the car.

The full length sunroof on the Model S is impressive, sure, but what would be more impressive is if they could cram 2 KW of solar onto the car, such that with a conservative estimate we arrive at 12 KWh of charge that could be had each sunny day.
