The document discusses the Shell Eco-marathon Asia- 2016 competition which challenges student teams to build and drive the most energy-efficient vehicles. The competition has events in Asia, Americas, and Europe. Vehicles are divided into Prototype and Urban Concept classes and are powered by internal combustion engines using fuels like petrol and diesel or electric motors using hydrogen fuel cells or lithium batteries. The document announces plans for a team to participate in the Prototype electric mobility class with a car made entirely of wood that has a lithium-ion battery and rear wheel hub motor propulsion system.

1. SHELL ECO MARATHON ASIA- 2016
Shell Eco-marathon is a unique competition that challenges students around the world to
design, build and drive the most energy-efficient car. With three annual events in Asia,
Americas and Europe, student teams take to the track to see who goes further on the least
amount of fuel.
The competition is split into two classes or categories. The Prototype class focuses on maximum
efficiency, while passenger comfort takes a back seat. The Urban Concept class encourages more
practical designs. Cars are also divided by energy type:
 Internal combustion engine fuels include petrol, diesel, liquid fuel made from natural gas and ethanol.
 In the electric mobility category, vehicles are powered by hydrogen fuel cells and lithium-based
batteries.
The competition inspires the engineers of the future to turn their vision of sustainable mobility into
reality, if only for a few days. It also sparks passionate debate about what could one day be possible for
cars on the road.
We are going to participate under Prototype class through electric mobility with the car which is
completely made up of wood.
