Solar+Solar coolant heating hood?

Wouldn't do me any good; I park in the garage where vehicles are meant to live.

Would be neat to see the vehicles skin used as a cooling surface for EVs, which require less cooling capacity in the first place. Lets get rid of the grill and radiator altogether.

Just thinking about this thread when posting in the electric water pump thread we have going on. Why not use the existing solar collector you have already conveniently built into the car, the cabin? You could power up the hvac fan on low and use the heater core to pull heat out of the cabin.
