Take advantage of solar energy for your electric vehicle. Easily install on the roof of your car and drive up to 48 miles a day without worrying about the power grid
Drive your electric vehicle with solar energy thanks to the GoSun solar charger, designed specifically for your car and mounted on its roof. This one new device brings a series of significant advantages to electric vehicle owners, starting with solar autonomy. With it, it is possible to drive up to 48 km per day using only solar energy, a sustainable and ecological solution.
The GoSun solar charger is easy to install and is compatible with all roof bars. It offers a practical and efficient solution for those who want to charge their electric vehicles anywhere, providing 1.200 watts of solar energy. Furthermore, the charger is light, weighing just 32 kg, which does not compromise the vehicle's efficiency. Developed to withstand all types of weather, this solar charger guarantees durability and a long service life.
Solar Energy Charging Infrastructure
Although electric vehicles are an excellent environmentally friendly alternative, public charging infrastructure is still not ideal. The growing demand for affordable and convenient charging solutions is crucial to the mass adoption of electric vehicles, especially in workplaces and destinations. GoSun develops sustainable transportation solutions to support the adoption of electric vehicles, improving the driver experience and providing peace of mind and confidence on every journey.

The GoSun's compact trunk contains 1.200 watts of solar energy, enough to cover about 80% of the vehicle's annual mileage. Forget about inconvenient public charging stations; Now you can take a solar power plant wherever you go. Solar energy, in addition to being a clean and renewable source, provides numerous benefits for users of electric vehicles.
Benefits of the Solar Charger
With the GoSun solar charger, you can drive with the most carbon-neutral form of transportation, now with net positive energy from the sun. The device is compatible with any electric vehicle, adapting to all models, from compact cars to large SUVs and trucks. This eliminates the need to rely on public chargers, avoiding waiting and searching for charging stations.
Additionally, the solar charger helps keep the vehicle cool by harnessing the desired solar energy and blocking unwanted heat. Charging the battery regularly and slowly with solar energy extends its lifespan. The convenience of self-charging is also a major differentiator, meeting daily travel needs, with capacity for up to 48 km per day, and an average of 16-32 km.
Off-grid independence is another significant benefit. Without the need for external power sources, bills or subscriptions, you can charge your electric vehicle in the office, at home or even in the mountains. The solar charger for electric vehicles is shipped pre-assembled and can be installed on your car's roof rails in just 20 minutes.
Technical Characteristics and Operation
The GoSun solar charger is designed for durability, withstanding all speeds up to 160 mph and winds up to 48 mph when extended. Its aerodynamic profile reduces drag, and its lightweight package minimizes the effect on the vehicle's range. The latest solar technology used in the device, with flexible monocrystalline solar cells, allows for the highest power-to-weight ratio ever seen.
The charger has AC, DC and USB outputs, allowing you to power devices in emergencies or when you're away, whether at a workplace or a festival. The entire system is protected against possible theft when the user is away from the electric vehicle, providing greater security.
To use the GoSun solar charger, just follow a few simple steps. The charger is shipped directly to the user's door. Installation can be done on the vehicle's roof bars in around 20 minutes, with the help of two people. Once parked, the user must open the lid and unfold the solar panels, connecting the charging cable to the vehicle's charging port. The solar energy is then converted into Tier I AC power and sent to the vehicle. Before leaving, you need to fold the panels again.
Technical Specifications
The closed solar charger has an output of 200 watts, 25-40V DC, and when opened, the output increases to 1.200 watts, 80-120V DC. The dimensions of the closed charger are 118,75 cm long x 122 cm wide x 12,7 cm high. When opened, its dimensions are 622,3 cm long x 122 cm wide, with the panels measuring 109,2 cm wide. The total weight of the charger is 32 kg, and it offers outputs from 110V AC, up to 15A, 12V DC, USB A&C. The type of battery used is lithium iron phosphate, which dampens solar intermittency, and the device complies with all EVSE Level I charging protocols. Materials used in construction include ABS plastic, ETFE-coated monocrystalline solar cells, aluminum and stainless steel.
The estimated price of the solar charger is $2.999, with delivery expected in 2025. The deposit is fully refundable.
