Solar Prius... for the air conditioning

"Solar Prius?" Gimme, gimme!

But it's a tease -- the roof's built-in solar panel only powers the A/C. (CNN)

Hey, that means the engine doesn't have to work as hard...
...but it's still a bit of a disappointment, eh?

I wonder why they aren't going for what is already available for the Prius through after-market solar panels - solar that actually adds mileage to the vehicle. That's described a bit in the article - and is something we periodically consider.
