Range-Extending Trailer Charges Your EV, Carries Your Gear. Of all the solutions we’ve seen to extend the range of EVs, this might be the most unique.

(Partially) Solar Powered Motorhome. So I already own this: Sure, it's a twenty years old but it cost less than your typical used car and all the hard work is done.I found that 60 mph works just fine 99% of the time on two lane highways.
I also know I got a hair over 9 mpg on flat.Working backwards, I come up with mass of 12,000 pounds or 5454 kg, frontal area of about 7 square meters, of about 0.35 and of about .01.Plugging these into the calculator, at 60 mph all I need is... 43 kilowatts of power - or about 58 horsepower to maintain speed.The roof is 31 feet by 7.5 feet or about 20 square meters (optimistically given the vents and stuff) available for solar.Which brings me to solar panels. It turns out many of those cars racing in the World Solar Challenge use super high efficiency solar cells designed for use in space. The reason is it costs ten thousand dollars a pound or something like that to put an object in orbit so it pays to use really good solar panels on things like the International Space Station.
