Whether this is really a 'solar powered car' depends on how you drive it.
New York The Lightyear One is a car with solar panels stretching across its roof to charge the electric vehicle's batteries. But whether it's really a"solar powered car" depends on how you drive it.
The car, created by Dutch startup Lightyear, has a charging port to plug into a charger. But the solar panels can charge the Lightyear One's batteries at a rate of about 7.5 miles of charge every hour. That's slow compared to plugging it in. Still, if you parked it outside your office on a sunny day, it could soak up enough power to drive 60 miles, which is more than most people drive on a typical day.
