Solar powered cars just got a bit spacier.
Well thanks to students at the Netherlands' Eindhoven University of Technology, there is now a solar-powered car that can carry around the whole family of four.
What's more, it can produce electricity, making it the world's first solar-powered family 'energy-positive car.'
Host Marco Werman speaks with Roy Cobbenhagen, the technical manager for the project.
