ABSTRACT:
A highway generator (10) for a motor vehicle (12) comprising a generator unit (14) to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. A structure (16) is for connecting the generator unit (14) to a rear portion of an undercarriage (18) of the motor vehicle (12). A wheel assembly (20) is coupled to the connecting structure (16), so that the wheel assembly (20) can rotate upon a road (22) that the motor vehicle (12) travels upon. A facility (24) extends between the generator unit (14) and the wheel assembly (20), for operating the generator unit (14) by the rotation of the wheel assembly (20) upon the road (22). The generator unit (14) can supply electricity to various electrical components within the motor vehicle (12).
