Toyota takes first steps towards Solar cars

Although mass production and use of solar cars is still a long way off.  It’s nice to see that Toyota has taken the first steps toward the use of solar energy to replace fuel consumption on it’s eco-friendly Prius.

The solar panel roof option will be available this Spring, and will power a cooling system without power from the engine.  The solar panel will provide energy to a ventilation fan that will help keep the car cool on hot sunny days.

Just what I always wanted – A solar car

Dang, if only I hadn’t spent my last $750,000, I could buy myself a really cool solar car. Who knew that with a bit of cash I might have been able to drive almost 2000 miles at 75 miles an hour with using any gas. I guess I’ll have to wait until I get another $750,000 to try out this beauty.
