Photos: Solar Powered Car Made By Nigerian OAU Student

A Nigerian University student has built a solar powered car assisted by wind. The final year student of electronic and electrical engineering at Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Segun Oyeyiola shared some info about the car, which took him over a year to build, saying:

"Most people think it is only solar energy because they can only see the solar panel on top of the car but the car uses wind and solar energy." He added that he’s also developed an application that can be installed in the car to share information such as the battery level, weather conditions, how far you can go and more.
