Telo Trucks has teamed up with solar EV manufacturer Aptera to offer solar panel options on their MT1 truck, including a roof-mounted panel, tray cover, and camper shell. While the idea of a sun-powered truck is exciting, the solar panels, which generate up to 200 watts each, provide only a modest range increase.
