I'm only half kidding. I'm a bit of a prepper and I have lots of powerbanks and devices that charge from USB but besides idling my truck I really had no other way to charge any of them in case of a long-term power outage which seemed a bit of an oversight on my part.

Not like this solves the issue. 30 watts (under ideal conditions) isn't much but it's a start.

It can pass EU safety if apply for a L6/L7 vehicle category

But from the website it looks like vaporware...

I don't really know anything about the EU other than they have a lot of regulations. I'll probably never go there.

These cars exist and have been sold in Thailand and Indonesia for the past few months, there are tons of videos about them on Youtube. Most people on Lemmy live in places where Chinese EVs are illegal and have no idea what we have available now. These are just typical cheap EVs with a retractable panel on top.

Interesting, it's not vaporware, Google already tracked my Lemmy posts and showed me this in the YT algorithm

they spy me

This is enough for my commute, I would never need to pay for energy again. Problem is that European resellers are going to sell that for at least 25k
