A solar car is a for use on public roads or race tracks. Solar vehicles are that use self-contained to provide full or partial power to the vehicle via sunlight. Solar vehicles typically contain a to help regulate and store the energy from the solar cells and from . Some solar cars can be plugged into external power so. . This list of prototype comprises multiperson, relatively practical powered completely or significantly by ( or , mounted on the vehicle) which convert into to drive while the vehicle is in motion and have a homologation for public streets.

On August 31, 1955, William G. Cobb of the General Motors Corp. (GM) demonstrates his “Sunmobile,” the world’s first solar-powered automobile, at the General Motors Powerama auto show held in Chicago, Illinois. The vehicle was 15 inches long.
Prototype solar cars are relatively practical multiperson vehicles powered completely or significantly by solar cells (panels or arrays, mounted on the vehicle) that convert sunlight into electricity to drive electric motors while the vehicle is in motion and have a homologation for public streets.
It is now considered to be the world championship of solar car racing. General Motors employee William G. Cobb designed the Sunmobile, which was made up of 12 selenium photovoltaic cells and a tiny electric motor. Alan Freeman developed a three-wheeled vehicle that was powered by both sunlight and pedals.
Solar cars combine technology typically used in the aerospace, bicycle, alternative energy and automotive industries. The design of solar vehicles always emphasizes energy efficiency to make maximum use of the limited amount of energy they can receive from sunlight. Most solar cars have been built for the purpose of solar car races.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry examines a solar-powered car built by members of the Tomodachi Initiative youth engagement program in Tokyo, Japan, on 14 April 2013. Solar cars are electric cars that use photovoltaic (PV) cells to convert sunlight into electrical power to charge the car's battery and to power the car's electric motors.
Louis Palmer standing in the Solartaxi. A Swiss project, called "Solartaxi", circumnavigated the world. This was the first time in history an electric vehicle (not self sufficient solar vehicle) had gone around the world, covering 50000 km in 18 months and crossing 40 countries.
