Chinese Car Company, Zhejiang 001 Group, unveils solar powered car for $5,560

The panels can charge the battery enough for a 3-mile trip in just one hour. After a full charge of 30 hours in the sun, the car can travel up to 90 miles.


The vehicle was debuted at the 29th Zhejiang International Bicycles and Electric-powered Cars Exhibition last week. The panels are not integrated into the car’s design, but rather stand above the car much like a typical roof-rack attachment.


According to the company, the panels can absorb up to 95 percent of solar energy, but can only transform 14 to 17 percent to electricity. If you live outside of China there is a good chance you won't even come close to seeing one of these anytime soon!
