Project Summary

The need for less carbon producing vehicles is increasing day by day and the automotive manufacturers are developing new concepts that are environmentally friendly.

Also, environmental protection agencies are becoming more and more active to mitigate the pollution caused by the use of transportation machinery and vehicles.

The global warming rate is increasing and the environment is becoming more and more polluted in Pakistan as well.

This vehicle is an attempt to develop a mean of inside city transportation for police patrolling, students, office employees, logistics, hobbyists etc. while keeping the zero-carbon footprint.

This will result in a much more environment-friendly short distance transportation prototype.

A bio-hybrid vehicle is a combination of muscle power and electric battery power or they can also be used as a separate source of drive powers.

It is a tad-pole shape three-wheel vehicle which will be optimized in terms of electric drive system, the braking system will be improved, the solar cells will be equipped over the roof, the aerodynamically fine canopy will be made other than that an improved CAD model will be developed for before fabrication as well as the improvement in charging time and overall range per charge will be enhanced
