Ford to show Max hybrid in CES: Solar charging according to foreign media reports, Ford plans to showcase the solar version of Max hybrids at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) next week, which uses proprietary technology to gather solar energy and recharge car batteries. The max concept car recharges the battery of the extended mileage through the solar cell on top of the car, rather than charging it by connecting to the transmission network. It is also based on the principle of magnifying glass, using specially designed lenses to focus the sun's energy on the solar cell. Therefore, the roof of the solar panels to collect more energy than the previous models of solar panels much more. Ford said the concept was expected to allow car owners to recharge plug-in hybrids without the use of traditional outlets. As the cars are based on the already-marketed Max, Ford is likely to launch similar solar systems in other models in the future. To concentrate the energy of the Sun, the solar version Max uses a lens originally developed for the lighthouse, and its system tracks the position of the sun. In the past, the solar panel on automobiles, although large in size, can bring a relatively limited amount of extra energy. They generate enough energy to run ventilation and other accessories, but not enough to drive cars. Max's solar panels are full of electricity and can travel up to 620 miles (about 998 kilometers), while the all-electric mode has a mileage of 21 miles (about 34 km). It can also be plugged into a traditional charging station or wall socket if necessary. Translator: Lebang
