PV on car roofs is as useful as those powerbanks with solar cells on them. Unless you keep them in optimal sunlight 100% of the time, the amount of electricity generated is next to useless.

The only smart use I've seen of that was my old Prius that ran a fan using the panel on the roof if it noticed the indoor temp was higher than outdoor. Kept the car cool-ish when parking during the summer.
