The technology fair called IdeenExpo is being held in Hanover, in which Tesla is also participating. The main attraction for the company was the Model Y equipped with a chassis battery pack, which already has 4,680 new cells lined up, but also featured on the platform was a solar-cell-covered trailer, which looked unusual in design from the brand.

Many electric car brands are trying to use solar power directly, but the solution has not yet been applied to Tesla products: just once, at the 2019 Cybertruck show, it was said that the car, for example, will be installing a few panels over the plateau, which They hoped to generate enough power for 60 kilometers per day.

Local representatives of the brand mentioned two possible functions: it can be connected behind Teslas as a range extender, and it will also provide Internet through Starlink – it is not suitable for storing packets. However, admittedly, the concept only demonstrates the capabilities of the technology, in this form it will almost certainly not be put into production.
