MIT students have unveiled their latest solar car for the 10th World Solar Challenge, a 2,000-mile race across Australia. The seven-day race features cars that run only on solar power.
The car weighs about 500 pounds and can reach speeds up to 90 mph. The top of the car is fitted with solar panels that can generate up to 1,200 watts of power.
