3: Brunel Solar Team

This will be our twelfth time competing in the World Solar Challenge in Australia.

'The design philosophy of Nuna 13 centers on optimized aerodynamics, lightweight construction, and high energy efficiency to maximize performance. Its streamlined shape minimizes air resistance, while carbon fiber materials keep it lightweight without compromising strength. The car utilizes high-efficiency solar cells, advanced battery management, and optimized power conversion for maximum energy utilization. A low-friction drivetrain enhances mechanical efficiency, while stability and safety features ensure reliability in harsh conditions. With a focus on sustainability and innovation, Nuna 13 pushes the boundaries of solar mobility and green technology, and demonstrates what is possible with the best solar car technology in the world.

Wait to see on June 10th!

The Bridgestone World Solar Challenge is the pinnacle of solar car racing and the highest stage for the technological developments in solar cell engineering. With our focus on inspiring people about sustainable technology, the BWSC is the best way to reach the largest audience. The origins of our team date back to the 2001 edition of the BWSC, where, with our solar car Nuna, we achieved our first of seven victories. What we do and why we still do it is thanks to the strong foundations set by our predecessors.

Seeing the solar car we spent a year designing, building, and testing drive accross the finish line in Adelaide.
