Building this car brought together students from five different faculties with engineering knowledge, costing, marketing, and business proposals for the judges. UoMR is run like a small vehicle manufacturing company.The team is currently working on its second car for Parma 2015. Improvements are being made on weight, speed, and design, bringing a faster and better car.
