I really love the idea of solar panels on a car, if I go with the new PHV Prius, it will be equipped with one, BUT I do not expect investment to ever return ... it is simply curiosity, possible tiny bit of boost in comfort, and you can't really see it as it is extremely well hidden this generation (it is much better integrated in terms of inventors, buffer etc. as well compared to 2016→2022 PHV).

I would build myself a solar roof if I had my own house or a private garage, but that is sadly not a possibility right now.
When I read the article, I must say I agree with all points, even if they are described fairly basic in a "THX captain obvious" manner ... but that's my opinion and for someone with unrealistic expectations, it might be just a right thing to read.
