The University of Minnesota Solar Vehicle Project team won first place in the Multi-Occupant Vehicle class, while the MIT team won the less-realistic single-occupant class.
more information about their team’s winThe University of Michigan Solar Vehicle Project has been competing in the American Solar Challenge since 1993, but this is the first time they’ve ever finished first, having come second both categories seven times previously.
Students at the University of Minnesota designed and created their own motors for “Freya,” a solar vehicle with two seats that can travel about 400 kilometers on a fully charged battery. The car’s 1,000-watt solar panel array charges a lithium-ion battery beneath it. The only team at the contest who developed and constructed their own motor, the team’s hard work paid off.
The students have already begun work on the team’s next vehicle, which will be its 15th solar-powered automobile. In Fall 2023, they’ll debut it at the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge, the world’s largest solar racing championship, in which teams race throughout Australia.
