require some information

Since you are a student you are meant to be able to *calculate* an answer to the question. This is a part of your education.

Using other ppl to provide the answer might make you a 'manager type' but certainly not an engineer.

You need to do the following......

Find the information that tells you how many kW are required to propel such a vehicle. Search through solar panel manufactuers' info to find a suitable power source.

It's likely to be tricky by the way . It's likely that the vehicle will need to be made ultra-efficient in terms of things like air and rolling resistance. I believe Honda made a solar powered car. Maybe you should google for that ?

how much energy does it take to drive the vehicle at 20km/hr

add about 50% (to compensate for mort and drive-train lsses) add more to coompensate for clouds etc...

Add even more if you wish to go uphill.

Maybe check with some of these guys:

Good Luck! Rich

Maybe you should contact the group at TU Delft univerity (Netherlands) who won the solar world race twice(I think) ?? (Google solar race).
