Solar panels make money when they are south facing, properly angled, and in a sunny environment.

None of those apply to car roofs. It would take a very long time to cover the cost of the panels.

How well do they stand up to hail? Here in Oklahoma, and in Texas, every spring we have a hand full of fairly big hail producing storms. Just two weeks ago, the Norman, OK area got blasted buy baseball and softball sized hail. Some went through roofs, lost of homes and businesses had windows blown out, and every car that was outside is likely totaled. Will solar panels withstand that type of storm?
