2. Solar vehicle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_vehicle

   A concentrated solar vehicle uses stored solar energy to run a heat engine, such as Rankine, Stirling or Brayton cycle, of the piston and crank type directly powering the vehicle or a free-piston linear generator (FPLG) powering a hybrid electric car system. [1] The term "solar vehicle" usually implies that solar energy is used to power all or ...

3. Solar car - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_car

   A solar car is a solar vehicle for use on public roads or race tracks. Solar vehicles are electric vehicles that use self-contained solar cells to provide full or partial power to the vehicle via sunlight. Solar vehicles typically contain a rechargeable battery to help regulate and store the energy from the solar cells and from regenerative ...

4. Green vehicle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_vehicle

   Solar vehicles are electric vehicles powered by solar energy obtained from solar panels on the surface (generally, the roof) of the vehicle. Photovoltaic (PV) cells convert the Sun's energy directly into electrical energy. Solar vehicles are not practical day-to-day transportation devices at present, but are primarily demonstration vehicles and ...

6. List of prototype solar-powered cars - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_prototype_solar...

   This list of prototype solar cars comprises multiperson, relatively practical vehicles powered completely or significantly by solar cells (panels or arrays, mounted on the vehicle) which convert sunlight into electricity to drive electric motors while the vehicle is in motion and have a homologation for public streets.

7. Alternative fuel vehicle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_fuel_vehicle

   A solar car is an electric vehicle powered by solar energy obtained from solar panels on the car. Solar panels cannot currently be used to directly supply a car with a suitable amount of power at this time, but they can be used to extend the range of electric vehicles.
