MOBILE, Ala. (WALA) – What is the EcoCAR EV Challenge? It is the cutting edge of automotive engineering education, serving as a proving ground for future automotive engineers. The four-year competition challenges students to engineer a next-generation battery electric vehicle (BEV) that not only utilizes automation, but vehicle-to-everything connectivity with energy-efficient, customer-pleasing features AND meets the auto industry’s decarbonization needs.
For more than 35 years, engineering students have participated in the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Vehicle Technology Competitions. Imagine being given an unparalleled opportunity for hands-on educational experience that goes beyond the classroom and puts you and your student team in the hub of automotive innovation! Many former student competitors are now working for American automakers and are shaping the future of transportation and mobility.
