UCI Solar Car members meeting with KU Solar Car founder Michael Srimongkolkul!
The 2025 Formula Sun Grand Prix is a premier collegiate event where teams race solar-powered vehicles, pushing the limits of efficiency, aerodynamics, and sustainability over three days of intense competition. Our team is building an advanced solar car to compete in this exciting race, along with the 2026 American Solar Challenge—a 2,000-mile journey across the U.S. These competitions give us the opportunity to showcase the potential of solar technology and drive innovation in sustainable transportation.
