IMHO trying to use solar to charge the EV from the car is a total waste. So much better to spend the same amount of time and money to set up a stationary solar system at your home to supplement the grid in charging the EV. In addition, any time the EV is away from home there will always be grid power to recharge so much easier, cheaper, and faster than any portable solar system.
It is a nice thought, but will never happen with solar. Maybe in the future someone will discover a new way to harness the almost endless power of the sun to concentrate it into an EV storage "tank" that can provide more energy than is being consumed. Until then, playing around with "Portable Solar" PV will never work.
