Electric off-roader powers up with solar “bat wings”

Creative agency Wolfgang LA, based in Los Angeles, has unveiled an offroad prototype vehicle that’s all electric and delivers “superior on and off-road performance,” according to the company. The Thundertruck has, appropriately enough, futuristic looks to go along with its zero emissions. It features a 180 kWh battery capacity, a 400-mile range, 800 horsepower, and it can go from 0-60 mph in 3.5 seconds. It’s powered, in part, by flexible, collapsible, roof-mounted solar awnings that help recharge its battery while stationary, as well as offering shade from the sun. Photo: Wolfgang LA.
