Here’s a throwback to our time at EcoCAR’s Workshop and Vehicle Event, or WAVE for short. We received great feedback on our vehicle’s safety, reliability, and future steps. We’re revving up to finish the competition strong.

We're switching gears here at the UW EcoCar lab. As we transition from virtual to in-person work, we are so thankful for our members putting pedal to the metal and adjusting and adapting so quickly. Did you face any challenges when transitioning from virtual to in-person classes?
