The first poster is clearly talking about local power generation when they say roof, so a building, not the freaking vehicle.

I started by talking about solar collection on the roof of a building, which applies to any electric vehicle.

But Aptera actually has panels on the car. That would be useless on a Tesla, but the Aptera is far more aerodynamic and only has three wheels. They don't claim to fully recharge in a day, just to get enough extra range in a day to cover many people's typical driving needs.

I'm literally replying to a comment that is talking about solar panels on a car, did you reply to the wrong person maybe?
No, I replied to you because you felt the need to hammer on the misunderstanding in the comment you replied to. The horse, it's dead, look, it doesn't twitch when I beat upon it!

Both of you had the opportunity to not assume the first post was stupid but passed on it.

You're name making any sense. None.

This model of car has an option to charge from the sun, with solar panels on it. The misunderstanding is yours, and it is you beating a dead horse.
