Solar panels aren t incredibly efficient most commercial panels can only boast an efficiency rating of around 15 percent.
How to make a solar panel car go faster.
Having a solar panel tilt on an angle can make it go slower so if it has solar panels try to put them on a level place on your car.
This will reduce rolling resistance.
You can make it a streamlined shape like a racecar.
Running surface run your car on a smooth hard surface.
Course the car will run faster in a straight line than in a curve and faster on a flat course than up a gradient all other things being equal.
The car can be engineered to keep its wheels on the ground.
While solar powered cars remain the stuff of science fiction tales for most of us some forward thinking engineers have been building and racing them for years but designing a car to run on solar power is a tall order.
If the car is powered though its wheels it may go faster than a car that is launched into the air by a bump.
