I know it is just for the Air conditioning system. But it shows you the direction things could go if Government stays out of things and lets the free market dictate our next energy sources. First it is used for Air conditioning and then next to power the car.
I agree with Newt Gingrich when he said he did not think the government was smart enough to figure out what renewable energy would be best! Let the market figure that out and keep government away!

Toyota may put solar panels on new Prius to power air conditioning
A Japanese newspaper is reporting that Toyota plans to install solar panels on its next model of the popular Prius hybrid. If the company follows through, it would be the first major automaker to incorporate solar power into its vehicles. Even with the panels, though, the pimped-out Prius wouldn't actually run on solar power (it's still a gasoline-electric hybrid, yo); instead, the solar panels would reportedly power the vehicle's air conditioning.
