About ESVC
Overview:
Electric Solar Vehicle Championship (ESVC) is Asia’s largest solar event which started in the year 2013. ISIE-
Electric Solar Vehicle Championship is Asia’s largest solar championship. We aim to build society’s interest in
Renewable source of energy. Our focus is to develop interest among the society towards alternative power
sources, which are the future of Automobiles. This can enhance their practical skills as well they can learn team
management, so our engineering students /professionals will avail to face any hurdles in the way of real
engineering.

ESVC 2020 7
Vehicle builds by Student/Faculty/Professional as per Adventure and professional class regulation must
meet the specification of the Rulebook. The teams participating design and manufacture their vehicles
which are ergonomically sound, dynamically stable, light in weight and solar powered, along with all these
they are fun to drive at the same time.
This will help them face real-world engineering design projects and other related challenges. Our focus to
develop interest among the engineering student towards alternative power sources, those which are the future
of Automobiles.
