The Istanbul Technical University (ITU) Solar Car Team builds high-tech solar cars to explore ways of reducing carbon emissions. They have designed and built seven cars to date. The team’s latest vehicle, Arıba VII, recently competed in the prestigious Tübitak Formula G Solar Powered Car Races, securing second place.

As a platinum sponsor of this vehicle, METYX Composites produced the team’s molds and the car’s carbon fiber shell and chassis. “METYX Composites congratulates the İTU Solar Car Team on their accomplishments and exploration, which help to raise awareness for alternative fuel sources,” commented Uğur Üstünel, Co-Director, METYX Composites.
