And self discharge of EVs is a serious issue if you don't use the car that often. Money is evaporating into thin air if you park the car:

According to this posting the loss is about 10kWh per week which translates into 520kWh per year (that is as much as a big refridgerator!). I pay about .22 euro per kWh so the monetary loss is 114 euro per year. At fast charging stations the electricity price is likely double of that. If you own the car for 10 years then spending 500 euro on the solar roof to keep the battery topped up while the car is parked is well worth it.
You guys are making these wild conclusions with pretty skimpy evidence. One Reddit post? Here's the facts:
1. Li-Ion batteries of the kind in cars generally don't self-discharge very much. Rather they are discharged by the car using power to do things when parked. As stated right in the response you are cherry-picking, this is very simple to change--it's just a setting. Sort of like shutting your computer down as opposed to putting it to sleep.
2. I don't own a Tesla, but my car doesn't lose ANY significant power from the main battery when parked, even if I leave for a month. In fact, I generally try to leave it partially discharged if it will be parked because it is less stress on the batteries if it gets warm out. This is a design feature where the main batteries are completely disconnected when the car is not running and all power is drawn from the accessory battery. Some cars actually have a small panel to keep the accessory battery charged, which is a gimmick but one I do like.
3. That solar roof is going to cost you 5000 Euro, not 500, if you want even so much as a peak kilowatt out of it. And for that you'll need a large car to boot. You might do a bit better if you could park the car on an elevated ramp facing south with an inclination equal to your latitude, but I'm sure you'll agree that is not a generally practical solution.
Seriously, I'd love a solar roof for an EV. I"m not some diesel-loving anti-EV fanatic. I looked into it. Many other people with a lot more knowledge and capital than I have done so as well. Right now it is somewhere between 8K television and supersonic commercial air travel--yes it can be done, but it isn't economical or practical. I'd be happy to be proven wrong--make one!
