The University of Michigan team is trying to see if they can work around these limitations and still get decent times. Their 2022 'Aevum' solar vehicle seems to be designed to do its best to accommodate the challenges the World Solar Challenge placed on the team.
If you’ve ever read about or followed solar car racing, you figure out pretty quick that it’s not like other races. The cars generally don’t go very fast, sometimes averaging only 15 MPH. The challenge is how fast the vehicles can go powered only by the sun on their backs, and with today’s solar technology, the answer is always “not very fast.”
Next year’s World Solar Challenge forced teams to tackle two real-world concerns for vehicles: fitting a wider variety of humans, and taking care of the environment.
