Students manufacture Aero-dynamic car!


Around five months of extensive labour, collective team efforts, Rs.350,000 collection on a self-help basis resulted in the emergence of a blue aerodynamic environment-friendly one-seated small car.

The car was jointly manufactured by students and faculty members of the Mechanical Engineering Department (MED) of a public sector university COMSATS, Sahiwal campus.
This car has been selected to represent Pakistan in the upcoming Manila International Auto Show 2015 starting from April 9 in the Philippines.

The self-manufactured car, called RUSH, was the project of final year students of the Mechanical Engineering department. The team of students has used 70CC engine and light weight fiberglass for developing all its exterior and interior. The designer of the car says "the car has nine-feet length, around four-feet height and width and will cover about 60km in one liter."
At present, the car has 200kg weight and having one person seating capacity which in future can be expanded with design.
