Stirling engines (the efficiencies are VERY tasty, I wish they'd more forward much faster with those) and other solar collectors are exactly what I'm on about. The car is just not big enough to collect enough power, but solar stations (distributed or in "farms") could make a big dent in fossil fuel consumption.
