Would you driver a solar powered car?

Was watching this;

I'm not really a car guy, but I loved it, especially in SA with load shedding I think this could be dope.

Not sure what the regulations would be here cause it has 3 wheels.

An the price tag of about R460k is probably gonna shy most people away, but as a second car I think this is cool.

I'll ask my driver and get back to you ...

I don't really care what powers my car so long as it works and is affordable. But it also needs to be a mainstream car, not some niche thing that no mechanic knows how to fix.

Agree, and if charging takes more than 15mins or if range is less than 500km it's a waste of time and only those kneeling at the Alter of Musk would be interested...

I will driver it!

So not really solar-powered, but still a great concept and will probably work well in American sunshine states.

Not too sure it'll work in SA though; seems too wide.

Probably share the same licensing as the Polaris Slingshot and Can-Am Ryker or Spyder; ie., self-propelled motorcycle (three wheel).

I suppose I would update all the necessary drivers when necessary? Depends on how long it takes and if they plan to push forced updates right before I need to leave...
