I think inductive charging is a good idea, but I don't understand how it doesn't inductively heat the battery pack or the underside of the car.

I would like to see how they get the solar cells on a solar car so flat and smooth, no-one seems to have done that as a DIY.

I think maybe a boat tailed insight gen1 with roof, hood and boat tail solar cells could get more benefit due to being able to lean burn more often. Possibly 600-800w peak which is around 10% of the required energy at 60mph.
