2025 Prius Solar Roof. Can the solar panel pay for itself? So those prius glass roofs are neither a sunroof (openable roof, but roof is opaque), nor a moonroof (openable roof, with roof that is usually made of transparent glass), as the prius roof.

The solar roof is a solid glass panel, so it won’t add anymore weight to the car vs one with the glass panel roof. That electrified power can again be generated cleanly by optional solar cells on the roof, which charge the new prius when it is parked outdoors in sunlight.
