Re:in order to use this power you need more batter (Score 1)

Adaptive software which measures the levels of power vs the levels of sunlight and correlates this with average driving habits to reach an optimal solution. this depends on a slightly different model of hybrid, essentially an electric car with a small gas turbine generator used to supply electric power to the the drivetrain, along with a fairly hefty capacitor bank to allow for extra power, recharged by regenerative braking and solar input, if available (based on cloud conditions). A fairly small battery pack would suffice for any other needs, such as starting the vehicle after long periods of quiescence. Such a vehicle could readily do better than the 100 mpg cited for the prius with laminate panels. In a sunny state such as Arizona, such a vehicle could concievably reach 250+ mpg on flat ground. Todays hybrids are all built wrong.
