A Car That Runs Forever? Toyota Conducts Research
September 16, 2019
Toyota Motor Corp, New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization of Japan, and Sharp Corp have joined hands to explore the possibility of a car that can run forever, at least in principle. The fundamental idea behind the concept is to combine some of the best solar panels and highly-efficient batteries to engineer a car that’s super-efficient and reuses the power generated by solar panels and batteries.
The three entities that are involved in the project will test a Prius for implementation. One of the project managers at Toyota, Koji Makino said that one of the biggest advantages of a solar car is that it’s not dependant on recharging facilities even though it may not drive for a long-range.
