In a bid to reduce vehicular pollution, a team of 6 students (Thokchom, Satish, Monu, Deepak, Jivan, and Akhilesh) from Sanskriti University has developed an electric BUGGY. The new green vehicle (BUGGY), designed and built by the team, is set to pose a strong challenge to the current generation of many off road vehicles.

The team is led by Prof. Anshuman Singh and other faculties and lab staff of Department of Mechanical Engineering of the University.

Electric Buggy is basically a lightweight off-road vehicle specifically built for traveling in sandy as well as off-road terrains. The overall objective of designing and fabricating this Electrical buggy is to promote the reliability and advancements of electrification in the automobile sector.” said Ayushman Singh.

Moreover, this buggy has been designed to carry a load of upto 500 kgs. The biggest advantage of this buggy is that it is totally emission free and can run with a speed upto 40 Km/hr and can run upto a distance of 80 KM (approx). The future prospects of this buggy model are to integrate this model with non- conventional energy resources and make it fully automated, he said.

Chancellor of Sanskriti University, Mr. Sachin Gupta said appraising and motivating the hard efforts of students in making the electric vehicle. Governments worldwide are likely to promote the use of electric vehicles in the coming days as a measure to control air pollution. Recognising this, the students of Sanskriti University dedicatedly designed a electric Buggy for traveling in sandy as well as off road terrains.
