A self-charging electric vehicle configured for converting solar energy and wind energy into electrical energy comprising a systems and methods. The vehicle includes a body and frame with a central body structure and centerline cabin and a chassis with a centerline battery compartment and a suspension system. Solar cells mounted to the vehicles top sides can be supplemented with extendable solar panel(s) that can be deployed by a control system to generate solar energy into electrical energy. An omnidirectional sun sensor provides for sun strength, angle and direction. A stowable horizontal-axis wind turbine with an extendable mast mounted to the vehicle that can be deployed by a control system to generate wind energy into electrical energy. A stowable anemometer provides for wind speed and wind direction.
