What does it mean fully solar car? Do I keep it in the garage during the cloudy days? 

[Selva + 252]

Hehe, not really. You can still charge it from the mains and it will have a range of 400-800 km. Not bad for a solar car.

Well, I'm a little bit skeptical about this. It sounds pretty bold and suspicious.

We are talking about people who created Stella solar-powered car and that makes them more believable. If they manage in this, this car will be Tesla's greatest rival. 

[Adam Varga + 123]

Yeah, even with the price. Just $135,800. Affordable for everyone, just like Tesla.
