In my science class we are building solar cars. The fastest solar car of 30 groups gets some prize yet to be announced. I would like to know what you feel are the best materials to make a car that goes very fast (cardboard, styrofoam, milk cartons,
Make it as light as possible so there is less strain on the motor.
Make it as wide as possible to get the most area for you to mount the solar cells. The more solar cells you have pointing directly at the light source, the more...
How to convert you rc car to run from solar power. THIS WAS DONE FOR A SCHOOL PROJECT!!! so stop telling me to buy batteries!
I'm trying to make this car. It is a little thing...sort of like a remote controlled car...except without the remote...it's got to be aerodynamic it MUST be good looking MUST be VERY fast and MUST be adaptable(solar pannel must be able to rotate...
Yes, flat and wide. Each year there is a contest to race solar cars across the US. Go look at the various designs and emulate them. They are all designed to have a large surface area and be very aerodynamic. Kind of like a large skateboard.

For a science projects(sort of like the science fair, except we have to make it 'reuse' themed, sort of) I want to make a solar powered toy car. What can I use to make this, approximately how much will it cost, and how difficult will it be? Has...
i am a technology education teacher, there are countless websites that offer everything from parts to complete kits, most are inexpensive, just do a little research and you will for sure find what you are looking for.
What would you have to do to a car to modify it to run on solar power, what parts would you need and is there a way to use the engine that is already in the car? also how would it work, would you only be able to go short distances and then have to...
All "solar powered" cars are electric vehicles with solar panels to recharge the batteries. There isn't enough surface area on a car to get enough solar charge to give you any kind of practical range, so the better answer if to have a...
Give me the cheapest way to make it ( I'm in the Philippines )
Basically I want it simple not too complex OK~
I Want to know:
*the materials I need
*the procedure
*where i could buy the mat.
...
Well, it is not really fair to tell you exactly how to do it, is it?
You do need to do some work.
The easiest is to start with a battery-operated car (remote control would be nice), then replace the battery with solar cells...

How electric cars got stuck in first gear
On a recent autumn day, employees of Tesla wheeled their latest electrified creation, the Model S sedan, into the concourse of a bank tower in downtown Toronto. Over the lunch hour, a handful of curious passersby ogled the dark-red vehicle’s sleek lines, leather interior and giant touch-screen monitor.
The Model S is the second production vehicle built by the Silicon Valley-based carmaker founded by American entrepreneur Elon Musk. Its first effort, the US$109,000 Roadster, was launched in 2008 and immediately grabbed eyeballs—not only because it was the first production vehicle to use lithium-ion batteries like those found in laptops, but because it looked car-magazine cool and was capable of zero to 60 mph in as little as 3.7 seconds. Tesla, which has yet to turn a profit, built and sold only 1,800 Roadsters, but that was hardly the point. “We needed to build a proof of concept that put itself on the map pretty quickly,” says Ricardo Reyes, a Tesla spokesperson.

Years ago, no one ever thought that solar powered vehicles are even possible. There are solar-powered calculators or solar batteries that can run small devices but as for solar-powered car engines, many have remained skeptical until they finally saw actual vehicles that run on the energy of the sun created for exhibits in various science and technology fairs. These days, many are already considering on the possibility that, in the next couple of years, mass-market solar powered vehicles will be available to consumers in replacement for the ones that run on oil fuel.
These days, one can see solar powered vehicles in engineering demonstrations and solar car race events.
