By means of a highly flexible, ultra-slim and super-efficient solar panel affixed at the top of the car, this super-vehicle is believed to able to run for about 56 kilometers without a recharge, giving it an edge over conventional electric cars, hybrid vehicles, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/scientists-just-made-a-breakthrough-with-hydrogen-powered-cars-2018-8?r=US&amp;IR=T\">hydrogen-powered<\/a> automobiles. Consequently eradicating the need to plug in your Electric Vehicle (EV) intermittently and embrace the world of electric cars that recharges itself on the go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following an interview with Toyota\u2019s Project Manager &#8211; Koji Makino by Bloomberg, who confirmed that this electric car is one of a kind. Adding that;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThe solar car\u2019s advantage is that \u2014 while it can\u2019t drive for a long-range \u2014 it\u2019s really independent of charging facilities,\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dubbed a unique car that could <em>\u201crun for ever\u201d<\/em> by Bloomberg, this technology comes to life through a partnership agreement between Toyota, Sharp, and the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) of Japan.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Notably, the Toyota Prius-prototype\u2019s build comes with a 0.03 mm thick solar-panel sheet that spreads all over the hood and from the rear hatchback through to the roof. Providing enough reception to store a tremendous amount of solar energy. These powerful solar cells together with a durable battery of immense capacity are designed to house enough electrical energy to power the car up to 35 miles at night. Which is about 9 times more efficient than the current model at hand.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hence the director at the solar energy systems division of NEDO &#8211; Mitsuhiro Yamazaki, describes the experimental Toyota Prius solar car as being able to be driven to as far as 50 kilometers each day, for four days in a week without charging. In his words;\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cIf the car is driven 4 days a week for a maximum of 50 km a day, there\u2019s no need to plug into an outlet\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In spite of the criticism towards this neoteric development such as the belief by expert analysts that this technology still needs a few more years to \u2018cultivate\u2019 as it is still in its nursing stage. Evidently, there is still a lot of work to be done in order to achieve the kind of solar power needed to efficiently fuel the solar car.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That been said Toyota, however, surpasses this hurdle through its affiliation with Sharp. Whereas the advanced solar panels provisioned by Sharp is capable of converting sunlight efficiently at a rate of over 14% more than the average solar panels available on the market nowadays.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just recently Toyota announced the launch of a new solar-powered vehicle that never needs charging.
