He further noted that the self-driving system could be integrated into heavy vehicles, buses, and coaches, making it a transformative innovation for Pakistan’s transportation sector.
In 2021, students of the NED University of Engineering & Technology also developed Pakistan’s second Formula Electric Sports car at a cost of around Rs3.5 million.
One of the students while detailing the creation said that actually, it was a dream of his seniors of the engineering department to develop Pakistan’s second Formula Electric Sports car, first one was made by NUST, he added.
The car can achieve a maximum speed of 120km/h and its average speed is around 60 to 70km/h. The car was developed with a cost of around Rs3.5 million and they faced challenges of battery backup and motors while finalizing it.
