I would respectfully argue that 5 hours of peak output equivalent is more realistic as that’s what you’d get from static panels at the proper angle. But I didn’t figure in the claimed efficiency of the car.
My car, Ford cmax energi, was tested with a 500 watt panel and that only yielded 5 miles a day in great conditions. More like 2-3 miles most days, and that’s at roughly 300wh/mi., similar to your bolt. Never made it to production with solar.
