It looks a little like the Dymaxion designed by bucky fuller or the Stout Scarab
Regarding Sunmotors car. It would still be a pretty cool car regardless. Say you drive 10 miles a day on average and the pv miles provide 15 miles range a day. If your battery was empty, you would start to build up a net gain as the days wore on. Thus, if you have to go on a 200 miles you would have the reserve to do it.
Maybe you could get Daryl Hannah on the show.
Bill, The solar panels are probably worth doing. I think you are right, it would as something like 10 miles per day. Maybe this is the better way to think about it or market it.
