Solar Car Goes 621 Miles!

Stella Terra, here on a roadtrip through Marocco, is the world's first off-road solar-powered car. Developed by the student team Solar Team Eindhoven, Stella Terra is the first solar car that is robust and efficient enough to go off the beaten path. With this, the students take another step towards a sustainable future, inspiring both society and the current market to accelerate the transition to a sustainable future.

This khaki-green SUV uses solar panels on its sloping roof to charge its electric battery.

This means it can drive long distances powered entirely by the sun.

Built by a team of students at Eindhoven University of Technology (TUE), “the world’s first off-road solar-powered vehicle” could help connect remote areas.

It could go “where roads are less developed and energy grids are not as reliable,”

The car could assist with emergency aid and deliveries, says Thieme Bosman, events manager for the team.

They tested the vehicle in Morocco earlier this month, driving more than 1,000 kilometers (621 miles) between the country’s northern coast and the Sahara Desert in the south. (CNN)

This technology could enable all cars to be CLIMATE FRIENDLY!

What a giant leap forward!
