This youtuber tried adding solar panels to a trailer, and finally got it charging – but only when it was stationary.
This blogger notes that his math was wrong, and it would take 10,000 of his panels to charge merely at the rate a wall outlet does. Supercharging charge speeds would take even more.
"Unfortunately, it would take quite a few solar panels even to bring the trailer up to wall outlet levels of charging speed. The Tesla Model 3's maximum charging rate is 7.7 kW—assuming the same 75% efficiency, that's 10,267 solar panels. And that's just to get the Model 3 fully-recharged within an 8-hour workday."

Using one of these pre-built trailers would be easier.
