Students from the city of Burgas have created an electric vehicle whose design is inspired by that of the computer mouse. The vehicle is a one-seater and can travel 160 kilometers on a single charge. At the beginning of July the electric vehicle will take part in an international competition in London. The idea for its creation was born after teacher in electronics Krassimir Kanchev visited an international energy efficiency competition in Istanbul where he saw the latest achievements in this segment of automotive industry. According to Kanchev, his students’ project is in not inferior to those of the other teams. The car is made of fiberglass and aluminum; it has bicycle tires and the interior is furnished with leather. A tablet on the central console shows all of the car’s functions and performance.
