Apart from generating renewable solar energy, the roof of the vehicle will use innovative systems that help it capture carbon dioxide from ambient air and release fresh oxygen back into the atmosphere. The electricity generated by the solar panels and the wheel-mounted wind turbines will be stored in onboard batteries that power the vehicle.
