The world’s first off-road solar-powered vehicle could help connect remote areas with less developed roads, unreliable energy grids, and assist with emergency aid and deliveries. The road-legal SUV has a top speed of 145 kilometers (90 miles) per hour. It uses solar panels on a sloping roof to charge its electric battery, driving long distances powered entirely by the sun. On a sunny day, its battery range is around 710 kilometers (441 miles) on roads, and around 550 kilometers (342 miles) off-road, depending on the surface. In cloudy conditions, the range could be 50 kilometers less.
