We have been Asia's top solar car team and is among the best teams in the world. It all began in 2016 as a final year project by few daring fourth-year engineering students and has blossomed into Mumbai's first student-run, non-profit organization that designs and manufactures solar-powered vehicles. We take pride in the fact that we are the first team ever holding both ESVC and IASC Champions title at the same time.
