hey I'm the last anon

as I said you introduce me to strollonso but nowadays I see you posting about Indy car

I wanna start watching Indy too but felt overwhelmed because it's so different from F1, so any tips?

love, AP

Hello again 🫶

I have just gotten into indycar this season myself, so I am a bit clueless as well still ! 😅

But it is a very different sport to F1. Under the cut are some of my observations...

The rules are 90% imaginary and I don't understand them at all

Oval races are confusing as hell

The qualifying format is insane (and changes depending on if it's an oval or a street course)

There are about 300 cars in each race

The car liveries make no sense (and change all the time)

There's 16 orange cars. (i don't understand why everyone wants to be orange. and the same SHADE of orange as well 😭)

Scott Dixon is the Fernando Alonso of the series (although Dixie is not a war criminal)

Teams can have up to four drivers and change them out willy nilly (looking at your Arrow McLaren.)

Races are usually pure chaos

Everyone hates Santino Ferrucci, and that's a fact. And it's okay, because he deserves it.

All the cars have their own name sponsor (example: Colton Herta drives the Gainbridge-Honda while his teammate Kyle Kirkwood drives the Autonation-Honda)

The cars are visually identical, but there are two engine manufacturers: Honda and Chevrolet. Very little changes to car setup can completely kill speed.

The driver's most trusted companion is their race strategist. (Bryan Herta is the best. He is Colton's dad and currently works with Kyle ❤️)

The cars are very sturdy and can take a proper beating

Pit stops are scary as fuck (also much slower than F1 but somehow a lot more hectic)

The drama is crazy. The drivers are such divas.

Pato O'Ward carries the whole sport on his shoulders.

The margins are non-existent. The fights are insane. You never know who is gonna win. But somehow Alex Palou always comes out on top.

Bus Bros are the Brocedes of indycar

Races can get wild. There is a vastly different kind of caution system than in F1 and it can be SCARY at first

I will never learn the different team names. I can barely remember my fave drivers' numbers 😭😭😭😭

I think Penske and Andretti are the best teams ?????? But pretty much anyone can win a race

They introduced the hybrid system only this year. MID SEASON.

They usually travel by bus and everyone has their own bus they stay in. And there are often barbeques and parties at the bus lot 👀

So... That's some info... Sorry if this is a complete mess and overwhelms you even more 😭 Today is the last race of the season, which sucks, but at least you'll have some time to prepare for the next season !! The indycar fandom is much smaller than F1 and in my opinion, much more chill. There are not many insane fans here and everyone is pretty nice 😇❤️

And also, here are my favorite boys 😘:

Andretti Global: Kyle, Marcus and Colton ❤️

They slay ��

[things-about-cars-in-posts]

Do you have anything to say about my baby, the Honda CR-Z?

(Please excuse the low resolution, I wanted to introduce it with a pic from my collection and this was the only stock one I had)

Oh, the CR-Z... Pepperidge Farm here remembers obsessively following its debut on Top Gear Magazine! Pepperidge Farm and not many others, it seems, as in present day the CR-Z seems to be as relevant in today's car world as basket weaving. Wait, no, less.

In fact, coming up with an answer to this question was the most I thought about the CR-Z in almost a decade.

But thought I have, so here's your answer:

I don't get it.

I mean, don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't like it! I am on record as a serial Honda liker -hell, to those who think it counts I own one- and I see no reason this one should buck the trend (although I've always felt it would look better with something between the headlights to stop it looking so big-snooty, as the bumper below does a good enough job of exemplifying that I won't bother rendering something better).

It's just that... I don't know what the point of it was. And looking at its sales that seems to be the experience of most vertebrates.

(To be fair, U.S. sales started in August 2010 and production ended in 2016 with the following years's sales just being stock clearing - but still, pretty bleak picture.)

It's not like we don't know what Honda were going for, they told us plainly: it's a sporty hybrid car, light on the wallet but heavy on the fun. And Honda would know of sporty compacts - what were they producing as the CR-Z rolled out?

Oh. It's the most hated of all six Civic Type R generations. Hm.

It's a joke, "most hated Civic Type R generation" is a bit like saying "most normal Kia Soul commercial".

If that car looks unfamiliar to you yankees, however, that's because y'all got different looking Civics for a while, such that your sporty Civic was this, the Si - seen here in the bewinged Mugen trim.

The Si is meant to sit below the Type R, but, since America wasn't getting the Type R, the yankee Si and non-yankee Type R were free to get the same 200hp from the same venerable engine (one day I'll go over all that makes the K20 so great) and the usual great handling, courtesy among plenty things of a limited slip differential. Wait, why is that not a link? Ah, right, I've never explained differentials... well, for now you can just trust that it's a cool type of differential that helps maintain grip when you're giving it the beans. Wait. Is it "giving it the beans" because you're stomping the gas pedal? Surely not. What is it from? Let me google this... Okay, sources seem scarce and shaky but apparently the idea was that if you fed horses beans they wou- wait this post is about the CR-Z. How did we get here? I swear this NEVER happens.

In short, Honda knew, and has always known, how to make proper sporty cars and give them great engines, whatever their size. So can it possibly have been a surprise when this thing came out and, forget motoring journalists, even the more talkative stray cats were meowing that the CR-Z did not have the engine grunt to back up its sporty pitch?

And look, if anyone here will say a car with as little as 120-130hp cannot be worth bothering with, it won't be a diehard of the Mazda Miata, which sold well over half a million units no more powerful than that. But that's a car that focused on open top enjoyment and getting a lot out of a little, just like the 60s European spiders it threw back to. What did the CR-Z throw back to?

Well that'll be the CR-X.

Introduced in 1983, the CR-X was a coupe version of the Civic of the time (hence its 1987 update corresponding with the Civic's). And just like the Civic in question, it is most fondly remembered for its sporty, proper-fun Si guise (pronounced "ass eye", because eye me dat ass) and the even sportier SiR that yankees never got. Which makes perfect sense, considering its main appeal against the Civic was the sportier looks.

Sure, since the CR-X left us North America got a Civic coupe in its stead, but am I going to pretend this thing looked half as good as the CR-Z that was about to join the lineup?

Not for free I'm not.

So now, imagine the stellar engine and manual transmission from a Civic Si/Type R, but now with electric assistance for even more power AND fuel efficiency, all in a car hundreds of kilos lighter, significantly shorter -thus more agile- and with the sleek CR-Z looks.

Then keep imagining.

The CR-Z never got an Si or Type R version, it was just left to sit there with its 122hp (later begrudgingly upped to 130) that, forget the contemporary sporty Civics, compared unfavorably to its 30 year old predecessor.

The CR-X was the sportier Civic. If its successor gets walked not just by the Civic but even by the CR-X itself, what's the point of the resurrection?

However, I concede there's an objection to this argument: this graph.

These are the US sales figures for the second generation CRX (which I think dropped the dash?), and, if you were to be able to parse it, you'd notice that the sporty Si version made up about a third of the sales - meaning most buyers forewent the sportiness in favor of the lower cost of the standard DX model or the High F-iciency of the even slower HF model. So if those versions sold well, why shouldn't the CR-Z have?

Well, if you ask me: image is more than looks.

This blog -and other affiliated entities- touched on the concept of race wins on Sunday bringing sales on Monday, and the same phenomenon happens with cool sport versions. Today's Corolla is a much cooler car in the eyes of the people who see in it the underlying foundation of its extraordinary GR version, and this phenomenon is most amplified the smaller the gap -or perceived gap, at least- between the version you're admiring and the more modest version you could realistically be interested in. I strongly believe that many people bought the dog slow CRX HF because the CRX Si ingrained within them the idea that they were buying something cool.

And Honda, as we touched on, had the perfect engine to dump into the CR-Z to make a wicked sport version. Hell, they could even have just given its regular engine forced induction - and we know it because the CR-Z Mugen RZ did just that!

Here at last was a perfectly respectable sport version that, while still underneath the Civic's best power-wise, was more than good enough to make car enthusiasts give a damn about the CR-Z. And what did Honda do with it? They limited the production to 300 units and only sold them in Japan. Take a fucking drink.

I cannot fathom why they would do that. It's not that they couldn't homologate the power additions or whatever, because a. that doesn't justify the limited production run and b. the supercharger (or at least a supercharger, not sure if it's the same) was made available in the US in the form of a dealer-fitted optional extra. Not by selling a supercharged special version altogether, no no, that may cause the public to -gasp- notice and care.

What was the point? Were they deliberately trying to keep the CR-Z's image one of an efficiency-focused... sleek hatch-coupe with minimal backseats?

Wait what?

Dear God, yankees, what have you done to Honda to get done so comically dirty?

Is it just that they thought y'all too big to fit back there?

That makes it even crazier!

Why in tarnation would they think people would care about a sleek, three-door, two seat, manual... efficiency-oriented hybrid?

Oh, right. Because they made the first generation Honda Insight. Which I myself love.

This was even sleeker and more hardcore than the CR-X: it was as light as the lightest ones despite the electric powertrain, it did without backseats entirely, it was the most aerodynamic production car that had ever been built... but all this wasn't about performance at all. It was about milking every drop of your hard-earned fuel for every single fucking inch of forward movement it was worth.

And it sold very well! I mean, look at the yearly sales figures!

Look how much America loved it! In a year of production that started from December it sold around a third the units the CRX sold in a full year!

So imagine what the production numbers were like for the year 2000!

huh?

Oh you mean these are the total sales. Like, all the first generation Insights ever sold in its entire six years and change of production. Oh. And it totals to like 17.000. Which is around how many CRX Si they sold in a year in North America alone. Hm.

Yeah, it suddenly makes a lot more sense how the second generation Insight was a Prius wannabe.

In fact, now that I look at it... that back looks familiar, doesn't it?

Wait...

Wait!

Well, now suddenly the car makes a lot more sense. And actually, come think of it, let me check the sales figures for the Mk2 Insight...

Considering, again, the CR-Z's US debut happened in August 2010, they match up pretty well, and it would be a pretty reasonable sales split if we were to consider them the 5 and 3 door versions of the same car.

Now, this may make it seem like it wasn't such a failure after all, and it did well in the segment it was actually intended to compete in. But let's give some context on how good those Insight sales figures are.

Yeah. Yeah no. The second Insight just wasn't a hit either.

But at least, now I can say I get the car. The Insight was pretty big and... uncool, so the CR-Z was a good way to offer that same hybrid efficiency to people who wanted a more compact, sleeker package - though perhaps not as extreme as the first gen Insight. Unless you're a yankee, I assume.

The name still doesn't make sense.

I mean, it would if I could see Honda seeing CR-X as just... a body style, and its resurrection of it akin to resurrecting, say, the Civic Shuttle.

(It was the only side picture I had saved.)

And Honda's press material made another point to this end, that I wasn't aware of.

So sure. Point taken. The CR-X was shaped by the quest for efficiency, so it follows that its successor would be efficiency focused as well.

But that's not how the CR-X is remembered. In everyone's minds, the CR-X is cemented as the sporty version (that Honda sold, mind - this is not like with the Supra, whose reputation was defined by modders). And the weirdest thing is, they don't just know that, they bring it up.

And indeed, they call the CR-Z's role "quite different from the original Insight coupe's" - they want this car to "change the current perception of hybrids" by blending hybrid efficiency and sportiness. They rightly sell its looks as sporty, take great pride in the manual transmission and explicitly state it's for driver engagement, over and over talk about 'enthusiastic' owners and 'enthusiastic' driving and 'enthusiastic' engine note etc etc. They brag about how much of a difference their Sport mode makes. They call attention to the valves per cylinder. They constantly remind of how (unlike the Insight) it has the legendary V-TEC. (If this is the first you hear of it, ask about it in the tags).

This is the press release for a sports hatch.

But when time came to give it a sports hatch's power? Japan got 300 units, North America got a dealer-fitted kit with a numbered plaque two years before the car's nixing, and we had to hope to never have a flat tire because Europe didn't get jack.

Was it to avoid stepping on the toes of the sporty Civics, because if the sporty CR-Z's potential buyers will otherwise just get a sporty Civic then why make two models to get the same amount of buyers? If so, I'll tell you why: because that was the only chance of moving regular CR-Zs, which surely must have been a worthwhile pursuit if you made the damn thing.

Was it the fear of a power-focused engine resulting in fuel economy so underwhelming it would undermine the model's eco premise? If so, heyo, you have electric assistance, which means you can either get more speed out of the same engine marking a win for the hotboys or get the same speed out of a more efficient package - and in both cases you're showing a hybrid powertrain bringing something to the table, which is how you actually "change the perception of hybrids" in the minds of people who consider them synonymous with boring.

I'm not saying my counters are bulletproof or that there is no argument against a hot CR-Z. I'm just saying that if there is, it's an argument against the regular CR-Z also. Because if the CR-Z was never to be something worth considering over anything that could be called sporty, then they should never have bothered to begin with - at least, if they were going to aim it so squarely at "the enthusiastic drivers".

In short,

Honda sought to make a sportscar - be it to sell the car itself or to sell a concept like "we're committed to preserving driving enjoyment even into electrification" or "hybrids are cool, so buy a hybrid, and please don't whine if we ever need to make a hybrid Type R or whatever thanks". And I'm always down for Honda building a sportscar. It was Honda that wasn't, for whatever reason. And so there the CR-Z stood, waiting until its passing for a sportier engine that would show the world how cool it was. But it never came. And it bugs me. Because I find it a shame. Because I remember reading of the Mugen prototype and waiting with bated breath for the production version that we ultimately never got. Because I still would love to see them about more than I do. Because I wish the second generation that apparently was in the works got to see the light of day.

Because, even after all these days of thinking about Honda's strategy and learning all we went over, and perhaps because of it,

I still don't get it.

Article from a 1993 Holiday Auto magazine on what they thoughtvwere the best JDM engines from the previous 12 months.

TRANSLATION

Holiday Auto No.1 Selection '92~'93

engine department

Japanese power unit is the best in the world

The reaction to the “Twin Cam” feature in the opening feature of the 9/10 issue was tremendous. We have a wide range of products from current powerful engines to past famous machines and future models, but the one with a supercharger won the number one spot.

Boosted No 1 Nissan's RB26DETT,

Natural intake was Honda's C30A.

RB26DETT (equipped with Skyline GT-R)

King with supercharger

I'm really conscious of the race

Literally the famous machine that became the driving force behind the "R" myth.

Since its debut in 1988, the Skyline GT-R has shown overwhelming performance. The heart of this is the RB26DETT model. As the slogan of the BNR32 GT-R says, “In the beginning, the engine was there. The mechanics are transcendent."

The 6-throttle chamber has a butterfly type throttle valve for each cylinder to enhance throttle response. The turbo is a hybrid of the T3 type on the compressor side and the T25 type that uses a ceramic rotor on the turbine side. The intercooler has a large capacity. The main body is also fully armed with a cooling channel piston and an EX valve during sodium filling. All of Nissan's technology has been incorporated.

▲Metal sodium is added to the stem of the exhaust valve, enclosed. Solid at room temperature and liquefied at high temperature

Suppresses the temperature rise of the exhaust valve by using the properties of sodium

_______________________________________________

C30A

(Equipped with NSX)

King of naturally aspirated

I also want to focus on weight reduction

A V-shaped unit created with the ultimate in luxury

The domestic high-power engine has become a 280ps battle. However, the C30A is the only naturally aspirated engine that achieves this figure.

The C30A is the second VTEC engine. In addition to the technology of the B16A type, it also adopts a variable capacity device for the intake manifold. This is to close the valve provided in the manifold chamber up to about 4800 rpm, and to increase the torque by inertial intake due to pulsation change.

The V type with a 90-degree angle is lightweight, and the tuning of the rotation system is also carefully considered. These include molybdenum-coated pistons, titanium connecting rods, ultra-precision mirror-finished crankshafts, and a deep-skirt-type cylinder block made of aluminum light alloy.

▲Big Bore, Short Stroke and Honda Racing

Following the theory of Guengin. In addition to VTEC, intake

A manifold variable capacity device is adopted to aim for the top

2JZGTE

It's Aristo's heart

2nd place

2JZ-GTE (with Aristo)

It may have been upgraded, but it will be installed, but at that time it will be even more powerful. The torque value of 44.0-kgm is in the class for the Supra scheduled to debut this year

Maximum output:280 hp / 5600 rpm Maximum torque:44.0 kgm/3600 rpm

As mentioned in the top speed section, Toyota's strongest engine that supports Aristo is the 2JZ-GTE type. The base is the 1JZ-GTE type that debuted one step ahead, but the 86.0 x 71.5mm bore x stroke has been souped up and changed to the 86.0 x 86.0mm square type. Toyota's first two-way twin turbo system (sequential turbo) is adopted for this, and it demonstrates the maximum output / maximum torque of 280ps / 44.0kgm. The torque value of 44.0kg m is the strongest in its class. It will also be installed in the next Supra.

6G72

Big torque in low speed range

6G72

(with Mitsubishi GTO)

You can run the GTO fast without doing it. ▼ As you can see from the maximum torque at only 2500 rpm, it is a torque-oriented type. That's why it's a regular shift work

MITSUBISHI

V6 DOHC

Maximum output 280 horsepower / 6000 rpm Maximum torque: 42.5 kgm / 2500 rpm

Mitsubishi's heavy fighter, the power unit that pulls the GTO is the 6G72 type. Mitsubishi engines are originally characterized by their focus on torque, and the 6G72 is no exception. Rather, the turbo tune makes its character even clearer. The maximum torque value of 42.5kgm is proof of that. Mechanically, it will be a twin turbo & twin intercooler V6 DOHC that adopts an electronically controlled variable intake system, a new intake port, an active exhaust system, and a high-precision electronically controlled fuel injection system.

HONDA

continue to reign in The B16A model is the one that made Honda VTEC known to the world. high speed saga

Maximum output: 170 horsepower / 7800 rpm Maximum torque: 16.0 kgm / 7300 rpm

The B16A was the first model to adopt VTEC (Variable Valve Timing Wrist Mechanism). VTEC is a mechanism that uses cams with different profiles in the low speed range and high speed range, aiming to increase peak output in the high rpm range and practical mid- to low-speed torque. In the new model, the compression ratio was increased to 10.4, the valve timing and valve lift were changed, and intake and exhaust efficiency was improved by reducing intake and exhaust resistance. As a result, we achieved 170ps, which is 10ps higher than the conventional model.

time attack build idea: low drag FWD 

Base car:  Gen2 Honda Insight shell, completely stripped out of engine and hybrid parts. The chassis is identical to a gen2 fit/jazz from the firewall forward and shares all of the same suspension components, but has 100mm lower roof line and 50mm longer wheelbase, while also having the fuel tank located under the backseats and the hybrid unit under the boot, making it possible to fit a pretty decent diffuser/tunnel out the back of the car. the front of the car is pretty sad looking but being essentially a Fit front end means you can in theory swap a Fit or Fit sport front on the car to make it a bit more fun, but you could also try your luck fitting a CRZ front on the car, but i have a feeling its slightly narrower.

i think you could get the overall kerb weight down from 1230kg to around 1000kg with the hybrid system and interior weighing in the realm of 200kg. i think the CVT by itself is about 40kg heavier than a K series manual box.

Engine: Being based on the Gen2 Fit means that you can comfortably fit a K24 turbo motor in the front of the car, so thats sorted. 400hp at the wheels is plenty. high gearing for big top speeds. 

Suspension: Raid the spoon sports catalogue. big brakes and the biggest wheels you can fit. 

Aero: Minimal downforce, minimal drag. Small front splitter to clean up the front airflow, small rear wing with enough downforce to help with stability more than outright downforce. most of the downforce will come from the underbody, going for full venturi tunnels. the rear suspension complicates the air flow, but we wont get into that.

2023 Toyota Crown Overview

Toyota Crown, a new high-riding sedan with the shape of a hatchback (though it has a conventional trunk), hybrid-only powertrains and truly funky styling. Toyota often plays it too safe with its new vehicles, so it's nice to see the company really swinging for the fences with the Crown.

t has been 50 years since Toyota last sold its Crown sedan in the U.S., but the model was introduced in Japan in 1955 as the Toyopet Crown. It has been Toyota's mainstream sedan there ever since, the choice of families, executives, taxi drivers, and police.

The 2023 Crown, now in its 16th generation, is back in the States as the three-trim, all-hybrid, all-wheel-drive, tall-roofed, fastback-styled four-door replacing the venerable Toyota Avalon sedan. It is almost the same size, inside and out, as the Honda Accord and Volkswagen Arteon sedans.

The Crown's tall roofline and high seating position have generated some debate. But there's no denying that it is eye-catching, especially in the optional two-tone color scheme available with the top Platinum trim.

By positioning the Crown as a premium model, Toyota is telling shoppers that this is a special vehicle, not to be confused with other midsize sedans. By offering two hybrid powertrains, one of them more performance-oriented, Toyota hopes the Crown will appeal to those seeking fuel efficiency and creature comforts as well as those hoping for a bit of twisty country road fun.

We found that generally, it succeeds but still falls short on driving excitement, even with the 340-horsepower hybrid system and adaptive suspension that come exclusively with the Platinum trim.

Competition in the non-luxury large sedan segment is almost gone. Three rivals — the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, and Nissan Maxima — are being discontinued in 2023. That leaves the Accord Hybrid and VW Arteon. Some shoppers might consider the Genesis G80, Audi A6, and Volvo S90 mild hybrids, all of which cost more and aren't likely to be cross-shopped with the Toyota Crown. Based on appearance and premium content, though, the Crown can proudly hold its head high in that crowd.

All the Platinum's performance enhancements come at a serious penalty to fuel economy. Toyota estimates this version of the Crown will return 27 mpg in combined driving — a fairly unimpressive figure compared to other sedans with non-hybrid powertrains. The current Avalon V6, for instance, produces a bit less power and has a 26 mpg combined estimate, as does the BMW 540i with its marginally less potent turbocharged inline-six. On paper, the Crown Platinum's powertrain seems heavy and overengineered without much benefit to the driver compared to other options.

Toys for the rich that can cost less than a new Toyota Camry - before tax credits? You can get a brand new Chevy Bolt for $19k, cheaper than most sedans.

Even the cheapest Tesla, with federal tax credit, is $33k - that's $4k cheaper than a new Honda Odyssey (the classic mom van).

Electric cars give you range estimation. They also lie to you and save an extra 10-20 miles after their range estimates hit zero- after this you can't drive at highway speed and the car will drive slower and slower until you stop. You don't just run out. It depends on the manufacturer how exactly this is handled, but the car should be giving you tons of warnings well before you're in trouble. (And in OP's hypothetical, if you're on a mountain, driving downhill will recharge the battery.)

Yes, PV panels are not practical. This is largely because, as OP acknowledges, the area available vs the power density of sunlight is not great. Realistically, you can get about 200 W/m2 in strong sun and warm temps at solar noon with the panel facing the sun directly (which the panel on a roof of a car can't do unless many other things have gone wrong already). That's enough for - depending on the car - up to about one mile per hour per meter of panel in the best possible conditions. Which is something! Sometimes!

BUT it also costs money, adds reliability issues, introduces another potential expensive repair, only can help in some circumstances, and addresses an issue that (1) few drivers should be encountering and (2) the car tries quite hard to prevent you from reaching, which is why it's mainly super-luxury EVs that do it. It's flashy, expensive, and mostly useless.

1) Money. Normal solar panels that go on houses or in solar farms are mass-produced in standard shapes and sizes with standard frames and connections. They have standard quality and testing benchmarks that they've passed and they can more or less be made by the multimillions per year for barely more than the cost of raw materials. It's possible to shape thin solar cells to the roof of a car, which is, y'know, how some EVs do it, but it's far more expensive. The tools are bespoke and low-volume, you can't use the same cheap flat glass and standard aluminum framing, you have to re-test that it can stand up to rain and small hail and heat and high wind and all the other onslaughts that come with being on the roof of a car. The (optional) solar roof on a Hyundai Ioniq 5 adds >$1,000 to the purchase price while returning to you - at best - a whopping 3 miles per day if parked in full sun. Hyundai also offers solar cells on the most expensive Sonata hybrid - which will get you less than half a mile ler hour in full sun, but will set you back an extra $5,000. Cars that offer more than a few miles' worth per day are generally concept cars that'll set you back $100k or more, total, for up to ~40 miles. Cells are expensive and they don't gain you much.

2) Reliability and repair. On top of the purchase price, it's way more expensive to replace a panel with busted cells than to swap out a plastic body panel. There's more that can go wrong in assembly, it's harder to get replacement parts if you're in a crash, etc.

3) Solar panels are less effective when hot. When they're in the desert with free air circulation, that's one thing - if they're on top of the heat box that's a parked car? That's another. Much of the heating of a parked car happens through the windshields/windows (that's why putting a reflector up can drop the interior temps by 20 deg F or more). A parked car has the virtues of making the panels less efficient by tilting them away from the sun and heating them up. Batteries also cannot (safely) charge when over or under a limit temperature which varies with their chemistry. If you've heard a parked EV gently humming in the cold or heat, it's running its heat or AC to keep the battery at a safe temperature. This uses energy. So no, you may not even have more range at the end of a day of sitting in the sun - because energy is being used to keep the battery in its safe temperature range.

4) Many current consumer-affordable EVs can regain >100 miles of charge in less than 20 min on a fast charger and even >50 in 5 minutes.

5) If you're regularly cutting it that close on charging, you're really hurting your battery. You should not be doing that. Batteries degrade much faster when discharged to 0% than they do when discharged down to 20%. This has to do with the chemistry of the batteries and I can't go into huge detail here, but it's a similar phenomenon as why draining your regular car battery beyond its min state can destroy it permanently. Your battery will last far longer if you charge and discharge it small amounts more frequently than if you take it down to 0 and back to 100%. This is also true for e.g. laptop and phone batteries.

6) you CAN get electricity and bring it back. it's called a portable battery. some roadside service providers carry them. you can buy one. if your roadside service provider doesn't offer this, they can tow you home, which is far less expensive than a whole solar roof and far faster than waiting for two days for your car to charge.

even though people regularly have to get gas cars jumpstarted because they left the headlights on and the starting battery died - or because it got cold - and even though gas cars get hot in the sun, we do not cover gas cars in solar panels. because it's far more expensive and technically troublesome than it's worth.

Okay also I’ve been driving electric cars long enough now to be really emphatic that the fact that they’re not all automatically built with solar panels in the roofs is a scandal.

And somehow almost every time I tell anyone this they roll their eyes and attempt to explain to me that this would not create a perpetual motion machine because of the limitations of the area relative to the power draw of the motor, which is incredibly annoying because that’s not the point.

Yes it’s possible that driving in the sunshine with a solar collector dripping into the battery would net you a little more mileage on that trip before needing recharge, but the usefulness of a solar-topped electric car is that if you drive it someplace–say, to work–and leave it outside in the sun all day, you’ll definitely have more range available by the time you’re ready to head home.

Also if you fuck up your calculations because of the inefficiency induced by cold weather or something and get yourself stranded without anywhere to charge, like halfway up a mountain or, more likely, six miles from home, you can call for rescue or walk away, come back later, and it’ll be able to move again.

This is important because unlike running out of gas you can’t really go get some electricity.
