now to my MAIN QUESTION-

IS THERE A WAY TO CONNECT SOLAR PANELS TO HELP CHARGE A HYBRID BATTERY?

I have seen that hyundai did a solar roof with the sonata hybrid, so it's clearly possible

but is it possible for me to get some after market solar panels and connect them to my IONIQ's hybrid battery for a little charge boost?
you will need 300 volts
