ArabiaWeather.com- Students at the College of Engineering at King Khalid University managed to manufacture a solar-powered vehicle, which took 8 months to manufacture and travels at a speed of 20 kilometers per hour.

 

Its electric motor has a power of 3.7 horsepower, and it is equipped with three plates that provide energy for three storage batteries. And she can walk for an hour and a quarter without stopping with the electric power stored in the batteries, according to the Dean of the College of Engineering, Dr. Ibrahim Al-Falqi.

 

This vehicle continues to charge energy while it is running, which increases the period of its non-stop running during the day, while its structure can bear a weight of 1000 kilograms, and it can accommodate six people.

 

A number of students from the Industrial Engineering Department participated in the design and manufacture of the vehicle, namely: Faisal Al-Faifi, Ibrahim Asiri, Ahmed Al-Omari and Ali Hazazi.
