Clean mobility for everyone, everywhere. That’s been our mission from the very beginning. And as we get ready for the start of production of Lightyear 0, we are a vital step closer to making that a reality. But we see potential in using our solar technology for far more than our own cars.

Thanks for this link.

Neat.

Doesn't solve the massive infrastructure bill, land use requirements, and safety issues of cars though.

Cars are useful where rual living makes sense. The sense breaks down fast if you dont need to pass acres of fields.

I think they're arguing in favor of public transportation and/or walkable cities in a very circuitous way (they can correct me if I'm wrong).

The only transport that l possess is a bicycle. And l'm in favour of walkable cities.

There's a product called the GoSun EV Solar charger, which also promises to add 20 miles of range in charging daily. It's on preorder, and I'm waiting until reviews come in before buying it myself, but I'm hopeful.
