Lawrence,
While it is possible to run off the panels alone, it will not attain 40MPH.
Even in full (straight above noontime summer sun) when the panels produce
1200W, the max speed from just the panels is 1200W/35Wh per km = 34km/h which
means 21 MPH max speed.
Only by supplementing the solar powe

Lawrence,
Have you looked at thermoelectric generators? I just did a precursory
look and there are some products available but I'm not sure how they
compare in terms of cost and density with solar. However, cars are
great at trapping heat and that gives and alternative (or combination?)
way
into thinking it's even remotely practical or
economical or has any widespread applications.

Peri,
I am wondering if not having a differential but driving each wheel
independently with an electric motor does not create the issue that one would
expect. If you have a solid axle car, and turn a corner, one or both wheels
will scrub the road and the car will try to drive straight forward.

Thanks, Ben! This is an excellent article on the strengths, weaknesses,
and challenges in very light human-electric hybrid vehicles.

This may be a relevant adventure story, now 5 years old, about lessons from a
Canadian solar car, which as far as I know still holds the distance record.
Google XOF1, or look at XOF1.com and you’ll find some references. The car

I can speak to the Tropica as I am still working on restoring/finishing
mine. It has 2 6.7 inch DC brushed motors, one for each rear wheel. The 2
Curtis controllers are both connected to the single throttle pot. From the
factory, they only reversed the left motor for backing up, the right one
