  1. To find funding, you'll need a detailed plan on how you plan to create such a vehicle.  

    Since the idea of a vehicle that can go coast-to-coast (if you mean in the U.S., that's about 6,000 miles round trip) is an incredible one, you'll need to show some theoretical work on whatever magic power source you hope to conjure up.   The reason I say that is because there is no battery technology that can accopmplish that without hauling TONS of battery along on the trip.  

    While I applaud your zeal to create something so revolutionary, if you hope to secure venture capital, you'll likely need to propose a more practical idea.  

    Most VCs would immediately ask you why a car NEEDS to go coast-to-coast without a recharge, or who would want such a vehicle.   A more practical idea might be to design a battery system that can be QUICKLY recharged, say in less than 1/2 hour, that would give the vehicle several hours of run time.   But even then, you're going to need some evidence that such a technology is attainable, and the ability to create some prototypes early-on that can be independently verified to show that a scaled-up version would work and could be manufactured and sold within NHTSA and other laws.  

    Best of luck in your pursuit!
