Prius solar roof cools interior of car-so?
Prius has an available Solar Roof, which powers interior fans and helps cool the inside of the car while the engine is off.
Hah, my 14 year old e34 does this.
Even so I bet improvements in solar panel AND battery technology will make this option do much more than power fans. it will recharge batteries, power car in motion and even turn on an electric AC unit to cool parked cars during hot days.
Perhaps even make coffee.
