    Sure. These are ‘for now’ points. But every improvement will also improve existing infrastructure and methods, so the most likely outcome will be that it will still make more sense to have solar panels be one thing, and a car be a separate thing.

    Now a tow-behind RV pulled by an electric truck, that once parked can deploy its panels and charge the truck/ power the RV? That would make a ton of sense. But just in general, we can keep solar panels much simpler if all that needs to happen is they get mounted on something tall enough to not be blocked by the sun.
