Twenty-three-year-old Qiu Song, a postgraduate student of the Nanchang University who has previously taken part in the design of formula cars before, led a team of 30 students studying different majors to design, build and test the fully electric car.

Despite the high cost, Qiu and his teammates used carbon fiber to make the vehicle due to its strength and lightness.
