Salient points :
Technology - The car is covered with a thin film of photo-voltaic cells with an average photovoltaic conversion efficiency of 38%, depending on ambient conditions, and a peak performance of over 50%. Further it claims that the projected degradation coefficient is only 5–6% over 20 years.
Speed - 0–100 km/h in 2.8 seconds and hit a top speed of 377 km/h
New York Times speaks on it here.
PS : In the early scripts for Quant, didn’t we surely read that on a substantial exposure to good Sun-Light, the batteries get charged fully in as short as 15 mins to be ready for a non-stop 500 km drive. Further you keep charging on the way. Didn’t get to read such a claim once again. Was it a hallucination that caught us on to this fabulous Quant or should we blame it to marketing going over-board?
