This might be a dumb question, but I think it's worth asking anyway. How do they deal with the interior of the car getting as hot as a fucking blast furnace? Because if you leave a regular car out in the sun, it becomes like a fucking blast furnace when you open the door. Heat like that can actually cause interior damage, like cracking dashes and stuff. So if you have to leave this car out in the direct sun to charge, how do they avoid this problem? Like, I'm imagining you go to work, and your car is sitting in the work parking lot directly in the sun for hours a day. And it's collecting power to drive you home, but it's also massively heating up.
...most cars are left out in the sun already
And cars get far to hot already
So the answer is they deal with it the same way as every other car.
