Humble Motors is one of the latest carmakers to join the electric car bandwagon with an upcoming electric SUV that is known as the Humble One.
The SUV stands out of the crowd since it uses technology that is currently not being utilized in the mainstream as of yet.

The Humble One uses solar energy to generate power for its electric motor that will provide the car with a range of around 96 km.
The company believe that solar is the future of mobility and that solar propelled EVs will be the next big step in tackling carbon neutrality.
While the SUV has only been revealed in a concept form, here is a list of top things that one needs to know about the Humble One –

Replacing the glass roof with photovoltaic cells is not the only thing that is supposed to make the Humble One efficient. The others are lightweight and an aerodynamic shape. However this does not mean that it will not feature the standard AC and DC charging options.
