The University of Minnesota’s Solar Vehicle Project (SVP) club won second place in the cruiser car class after racing in the 2023 Bridgestone World Solar Challenge (WSC) in Australia.
The 23-student crew left late September to spend six weeks preparing for a one-week race across Australia with their solar car.
The two-person solar car is a cruiser car, built to be practical and similar to a prototype for a car that could be seen on the road someday, said race crew captain Joel Roberts.
