- In this video, we are going to explore three solar cars namely Sion, Lightyear 1 & Aptera.
These modern cars are made to maximize the solar energy generated.
We look at exactly how much energy is consumed per unit distance and what are the coefficient of drag values.

The upterra car is a very interesting concept
I probably drive a hundred miles a week, so this is very appealing
Lets just hope they aren't over priced
Cool stuff
Make the cars longer, then fully solar powered is easy. Think maximum vehicle length allowable x maximum width allowable on a road. Cover all outfacing surfaces, and I estimate that if the sun is out more than 100% of the power needed to move the vehicle would be available to be stored in the batteries or connected to grid to help power homes. I'd say the teardrop shape of the Silverfish and how it moves is accurate on the shape and movement of a fully solar powered car.
@@benoitavril4806 Let's see what they could build with the standard semi trucking length/weight capacity limits of Australia's trucking allowing up to 4 trailers at 53.5 metres (175 ft 6 in) long and 136 tonnes (134 long tons; 150 short tons). If they can run the roads, then so can solar. Imagine how many batteries that could support! I'm surprised the teams don't combine their efforts to make a super-solar transport, like the ISS everybody builds a piece and it all snaps together. If they want to build even a solar car then they must stop thinking in the terms of the types of vehicle size you build with a high energy source such as gasoline/petrol. Solar has to be more spread out, hence, longer. If Australia built a big solar powered transport that just went round and round the continent advertising the companies, (think big contributor logos on the sides like a billboard) products and teams that built it. It could run on sunny days, it would be in service almost year round with a zero emission footprint! Why waste time with an challenge equation that doesn't work well, roll with what does, size matters with solar, the bigger it is the more it makes. Try the reality baseline of 17-20% conversion efficiency of 1KW/Meter squared you have to build to that profile due to cost of the solar energy conversion power source. I think it's time to uncork that genie due to the limits of cost vs. construction of utility grade solar panels being deployed by the hundreds of thousands by large utilities, that's what works. Specify that requirement, must use off-the shelve utility grade solar panels. But up the size and weight limits please, outdated requirement to create spacer-tech level cars no one would buy due to the proprietary nature of everything about them. If you need help, just ask me, I laugh at the pitiful, problematic designs. Oh no, our custom, titanium carbon fiber honeycomb part broke! How about NO exotic materials? construction limited to steel, aluminum and plastic. I think about solar a lot and know it could go further if applied correctly and not blocked at the consumer level by the restrictive nature of legislation.
👍👍👌
Dit you add the extra weight of the solarpanels and tye charge controler?
Why not we integrate piezoelectric layer at the bottom of car which provide voltage upon vibration along with solar panels. Piezoelectric layer can also be integrated within the body of the car utilizes effective area.
I'm a B.Tech (Nanoscience and Technology) graduate. Please do notify me, if any job vacancy.
How about pulling a solar trailer?
How about a solar trailer pushing the car? ;-)
That insect solar "car" would get crushed like a bug in Boston traffic otherwise very cool idea
Its bigger than a bike
