A student team of the National University of Science and Technology (NUST) has made it to the Shell Eco-Marathon Singapore 2018 with their carbon fiber car. The tiny-looking vehicle is capable of achieving a 100 km mileage per liter.
The eco-friendly car is basically produced to encourage the production of vehicles with lesser emissions impact on the environment while ensuring to get the most out of the fuel.
NUSTians have released a short video on Facebook, highlighting their hours of work. The Mechanical Engineers can be seen having fun during the manufacturing process.
What It Means to Be In The Shell Eco-Marathon Asia?
The 9th Edition of the Eco-Marathon is being held in Singapore from March 7-12, 2018 where a total of 120 students will be participating from over 18 different countries.
A total of 7 teams will be wearing the Pakistani badge in the event. Pakistan holds a good track record in the said competition and last year’s competition was also won by Team PNEC NUST.
What’s Included In The Event?
The Shell Eco-Marathon Singapore 2018 is at the preliminary stage where the participants have to take part in a traditional mileage challenge. This winner will be the most fuel-efficient car, which manages to travel the longest in a specific amount of fuel.
The next stage is known as the ‘Driver’s World Championship Asia’. This is a test for the drivers to manage the energy efficiency factor along with maintaining a high speed!
The winning teams of the event will be selected for the grand finale, Shell Eco-Marathon London.
