Mercedes-Benz continues to set the standard in the automotive sector with an innovative solution that could change the way we think about electric mobility. The German firm is developing a highly efficient solar paint<\/strong><\/a> , designed to be applied directly to the bodywork of its electric vehicles<\/strong> , which would allow energy to be generated continuously, even when the car is not moving. <\/p>\n\n

A solar paint that increases the vehicle’s autonomy<\/h2>\n\n

The new photovoltaic system<\/a><\/strong> developed by Mercedes-Benz uses solar cells that are 5 micrometers thick, noticeably thinner than a human hair, but with an energy efficiency of 20%. This advance could transform the way in which electric vehicle drivers recharge their batteries, generating enough energy to travel more than 12,000 kilometers a year<\/strong> , depending on factors such as geographic location, sun intensity and level of shade. <\/p>\n\n

In addition, the energy generated by the solar cells is efficiently used to directly power the vehicle’s battery<\/a><\/strong> , which reduces the need to charge the car and also improves overall energy efficiency.<\/p>\n\n
