I think it is an excellent idea as an after market option. My daily commute will be 90ish miles. I am choosing the 600 mile model. Living in the DC area means decent solar charging but I would gain a little more with my Aptera parked in the sun for the 8 hours at work gaining a trickle of energy. I hope to gain a few additional miles by having a few solar panels on the south facing roof of a carport housing my small camper on the weekends. I may never need to plug the Aptera into the grid unless I go on an extended trip.

My daughter had a used VW Jetta (2004 I think), that came with a small solar panel that plugged into the cigarette lighter. Never used it but thought it an interesting idea.
