Solar Powered Cars traditionally are defined as cars which run on energy from the sun. Future concept solar powered cars are being designed to be more efficient and to achieve maximum performance.
Solar-powered cars all get their fuel from the Sun. The cars use hundreds of photovoltaic cells to convert sunlight into electricity. Each cell produces about one-half volt of electricity. The Sun’s energy powers the car’s motor and charges a battery for use when the Sun is hidden by a cloud. This post features some cool concept cars that you can see on roads in near future (if companies adapt these designs).
