Solar-powered car can run 115 MILES on a single charge

In an effort to make vehicles more eco-friendly, a German auto company has sought to solar technology.

A model for an automobile has been developed which is adorned with solar panels.

The Sion car can travel up to 115 miles on a single charge and also utilizes the unanticipated material of moss to ventilate the car.

Sono Motors, a vehicle company based in Munich, is now crowdfunding $200,000 to construct the vehicle, which is presently a prototype.

The self-charging vehicle will get power from the solar panels fitted to its roofing and sides, though motorists will also have the ability to utilize power outlets as an option.

Sion, which is anticipated to hit the roads in 2018, likewise includes an uncommon ventilation system fitted with moss.

The Icelandic pressure of moss is asserted to have air-cleaning abilities that can filter dust particles and serve as a natural air filter.

Two designs will be readily available – the ‘Urban’ created to take a trip 75 miles will be priced at $13,000, and an ‘Extender’ model that is going to travel as much as 115 miles on a single charge and cost $18,000.

The car is a six-seater, having 3 front seats, and 3 in the back, which can be flipped down to offer more space for storage.
