Making a SELF-CHARGING CAR... Solar Powered EV

In this video I make a car that uses nothing but the sun and solar panels to charge it’s electric batteries. This 48V 3000W cyber truck solar car has flat range of 100km, and solar panels that can double that range on a fully sunny day. It takes about 10 hours to recharge fully in the sun. Made from two old bike frames and lots of steel, this cool looking roadster is a futuristic proof of concept for how cars could be powered one day.
