The latest news of the team.
A new Solar Challenge
“The SCM 2021 is a brand-new challenge for us,” says Simon Quinker, 2nd chairman of the association, “The event offers the opportunity for us to co-create a Solar Challenge to demonstrate our technical innovations in a new environment.”
The SCM has it all with its 5 stages over a combined 2500 km in 5 days. The starting and finishing point of the race, which runs on public roads and through the Sahara Desert, is Agadir, a port city in southern Morocco.
The management board of the team
The new year started with a big change in our organization: We have elected a new board. Timon Elliger takes over the 1st chair from Markus Eckstein. Timon is studying industrial engineering in his master's degree with a focus on design and development at RWTH Aachen University and helped develop the electric motor for the Covestro Sonnenwagen. He joined the team in December 2017 and knows what it takes to get the next Sonnenwagen on the road.
