SOLAR Powered TOYOTA Prius News Feature

March 15th, 2010 by My Efficient Planet Leave a reply »

Solar electrical vehicles can convert your prius to solar. You will get much more MPG under normal driving. PLUS if you only do a few miles a day and don’t go over 42 mph you will NEVER have to buy gas again. For more information go to www.solarelectricalvehicles.com

    so, you have one of thees in the drive way, you live in a sunny part of the country and have a short commute. you only have to gas up once every 2 or 3 months. the bad news is with the new E10 gas sold in most if not all of the country. the fuel will go bad before you get to use it.the fuel system will have to be torn down and cleaned. just a thought. might want to find a solution to that.

    They cannot use it for charging the batteries because it makes too little power.

    and solar cells are very heavy for what they produce.

    I had this idea a long time ago about time they make it viable!!

    1) this is not copied from Aptera-this guys has had this on his website for longer than Aptera has been around.
    2) There looks like a lot of more surface area on the hood and back deck. How about doubling the array size?

    3)How come Toyota does not use their roof for more than the “solar cooling”? Anything that keeps the batteries topped up seems to make a lot of sense.
    I have a 4.5 mile commute, so this thing looks like it could really work. off

    You’re right about the cars in Japan. They’re cool, get great mpg but…you’ll die if you hit anything larger than a motorcycle. There’s absolutely nothing too them. For slow city driving I wouldn’t mind having one. Out on the highway? Forget it.

    your wrong the solar power thing was copied from the aptera which already came out in Janaury but was only sold in C.A

  7. jiminirvana says:

    They Copeid it from the aptera

    Solar feature seems like a badass idea, but the problem I have with the Prius is… IT LOOKS SO UGLY!!!! Give that car some sex appeal.

  9. NeoAltPower says:

    We could have had cars like this back in the 60’s. The gas milage of your average car in Japan is 50mpg, some even 100mpg look up C.A.F.E. $4500 for solar batteries, think about what you save on Gas and what you paid for that $4500 solar system, do the math, it actually isn’ t all that much.

    …yeah

  11. velveetaslingshot says:

    “b) you must be really bored to reply to a comment 3 months old… fuckin looser”

    LMAO….truly the irony of what you just wrote must be lost on you.

  12. rahmani15 says:

    a) i typed in prius to show my friend when top gear talked about how its more environmentally safe to drive a range rover turbo for 1 yr. than to make a prius battery, and then at the end they blew the prius up, and i saw this video so no i didn’t search for it. b) you must be really bored to reply to a comment 3 months old… fuckin looser

  13. velveetaslingshot says:

    So lemme get this straight. You are the super-cool guy who goes around calling people hippie liberal douchebags but you actually looked for and watched a video titled SOLAR Powered Toyota Prius???? LMAO!!!! Burned by your own incompetence!!!

    We wont see this until 2011

  15. Jules1414 says:

    Not really relevant to the comment I made but give me the reference I’ll go read it, then look at the source of the article and see if it’s reliable and then have an opinion about it…That’s how I do it…I sold my car and bike around by the way.

  16. rahmani15 says:

    you know what YOU should think about, the fact that its more environmentally dangerous to produce a toyota prius battery than it is to drive a range rover sport, don’t believe me? go look it up.

  17. Jules1414 says:

    So because your kids won’t have to live with the consequences of todays mistakes it is not an issue for you? You have balls to call other people douchebags after a statement like that…seriously, think about it.

  18. sf49ersrule says:

    actually it is proved that its almost too late. and 100 to 200 years??? global warming is happening now and all the rainforest might end up in 2040. now is the time to start, or else the end of the world ight be near!

  19. rahmani15 says:

    LOL when i saw someone say something that stupid i couldnt tell if you were serious so i looked at your profile and i notice you like soulja boy wich just proves that you must have down syndrom yeah global warming …. it would take almost another 100 – 200 yrs to actually have to worry about the effects of that

  20. sf49ersrule says:

    ya think about that when your kids are gonna die because of fuckin global warming

  21. rahmani15 says:

    green car lovers … aka, hippie liberal douchebags

  22. kaduisaui says:

  23. leandro5k says:

    esa idea la tengo desde que tenia 7 aƱos,lo que pasa es que vivo en argentina y aca hay que agradecer si tenes monedas para el colectivo. ahora tengo 26 y recien se les esta ocurriendo a esos hijos de puta que el sol es gratis?
    p.d. no encontras algo esplicado en castellano ni por putas

  24. redsoil5 says:

    Why not use magnetic motor & solar power to power the battery.Would it be more effective?Now we’re talking about free energy.The energy company would hate this.

  25. hellasow says:

    why was the earth cooling in the 1970’s so much scientist thought there would be an ice age? we were polluting alot then where was our global warming?…other planets are expirencing global warming too…
