🏎️ Deakin has partnered with @accionaenergia to design and build a solar-powered vehicle to compete in the 2023 Bridgestone World Solar Challenge – a 3000 km race from Darwin to Adelaide. 
 
🏎️ ASCEND is currently exhibited in The Atrium at Federation Square. 
 
🏎️ Students and Researchers are on hand to answer questions about their designs, learning experiences, and the challenges they expect to face during the World Solar Challenge. 
 
🏎️ Exhibiting ASCEND in a public forum allows the students to test their design concepts and invites the public to consider how a car of the future could look, the importance of blue sky thinking, and design innovation so that we can all live in the world we want.
