Lightyear – the Dutch high-tech company producing the world’s first solar-powered electric car, Lightyear 0 – has opened the waitlist for its second production model, Lightyear 2. Powered by the sun, Lightyear 2 makes electric driving accessible and convenient at a more affordable price point than other long-range electric vehicles (EVs). Among the first regions for the launch of Lightyear 2 will be the US, UK, and EU, and production will start by the end of 2025 with an estimated price point of below €40,000. Individual consumers can now also join the waitlist, and be first in line to pre-order their Lightyear 2 on the website.
