All about solar powered cars! - In Class With...

In this exclusive In Class With… episode hear from some 2023 Bridgestone World Solar Challenge participants, discovering how the teams develop and manage their high performance race vehicles and how the technologies they use influence the design of our everyday cars. Hear from Australian and International teams including Deakin University, the University of Michigan and the University of Minnesota.
From solving engineering and design problems, to travelling across the great Australian Outback, to team work and collaboration. The 2023 Bridgestone World Solar Challenge participants travelled from across Australia and around the globe to enter the challenger and cruiser race classes, testing their designs against the challenging conditions of the Australian outback by traversing the 3,000 kilometres from Darwin to Adelaide using only the power offered by the sun.
In this episode we discover how solar cars work and what makes them different to the vehicles we travel in everyday.
