Nissan develops paint that keeps cars cool in summer heat

Nissan also detects you having sex in the car and phones the info home.

And that’s 12 degrees Celsius (21.6 degrees Fahrenheit)! What kind of garbage article doesn’t include the units!?

I seriously doubt that, tests have been performed comparing black and white painted cars, and the difference was insignificant. The heat buildup in a car is due to the the sunlight entering through the windows.

Nissan invents white paint

I just love how humans will do anything other than actually focus on fixing the problem. Love it.

They're currently working hard for a way to make it subscription.

Forget Nissan but I'll take the paint.

Twelve degrees what? A degree Celsius is more than twice a degree in Fahrenheit.

State your units, FFS.

Can they develop a paint that reduces the amount of cars? That would be more helpful.

12 degree °C or °F???

diy cooling paint

Might be the most interesting thing Nissan has developed in two decades.

wouldn't this also work on buildings? pavement?

As someone living in Wisconsin with salty road winters, I'll say that Nissan's reputation is mostly trash here based specifically on their paint

Anything to not add a cooling system to the ev batteries.

Windshield screens are the low-tech but far more effective method of keeping a car's interior cooler, typically by at least 20F when it's really hot out. Slightly inconvenient but unlike this paint, a windshield screen will actually make a difference.

Why don’t they just make the whole plane planet out of the black box paint.

can i paint my house with that?

Neat. Now paint the inside.

Got in my car after work yesterday and it was 102F inside. It was awful

Also great for city climate since heated up cars are acting like a heat battery making it significantly slower for a city to cool down once the sun goes away

Ideally there would be no openly parked cars but I guess this is the next best thing

12 degrees? I guess that's cool but still well within egg frying temperature around here.

Yeah, I know it’s an NSX. Deal with it.

How big is the difference between black and silver, metallic and non-metallic paint?

I'm sure those 28% loans will just tack on another 6k in paint. NBD.
