Although under normal use this will not provide all the vehicles power it will make a significant contribution when you factor in the decreasing cost of solar panels and the rising cost of fossil fuel. Here are some examples: Solar Toyota Prius: www.solarelectricalvehicles.com Fisker Karma: www.fiskerautomotive.com Saab 9 X concept: www.saab.com BMW concept with solar roof: www.autobloggreen.com Ford Reflex concept: www.automobilemag.com Giugiaro Quantara concept: www.autoblog.com and many more… The Fisker Karma can already be ordered from the Fisker website – the first ones are scheduled for delivery in 2009. The music theme is called ‘sunshine’. The wattage of the average car roof panel is around 250 watts. If you covered the entire car in solar film or panels you would get around 1000 watts or more.
