HONG KONG: A team of students from Cambridge University is set to unveil its newly built solar-powered racing car as part of a programme to showcase the potential of electric vehicles.
Sixty students from the Cambridge University Eco-Racing Team (CUER) have been designing, building and racing eco-vehicles since 2007 and will reveal its latest car, named Evolution, to the public on Monday 13 July.
As well as demonstrating the potential of electric-powered vehicles, it’s hoped CUER’S Evolution can showcase the sustainable engineering that goes into projects like these and therefore inspire future mainstream eco-vehicles.
Scott Stevens, from BNY Mellon (one of CUER’s supporting firms), told the Press Association: “By designing a car to run on solar power alone, CUER is driving the step changes in vehicle efficiency and new technologies for a low-carbon future.
