The Global Green Challenge

The Global Green Challenge has evolved into a platform and testing ground for the next generation of vehicle technology.

Conceived out of the legendary World Solar Challenge that pioneered and promoted research into solar cell technology, battery technology, low resistance tyres and electric ‘wheel’ motors, the Global Green Challenge event is a trial and exhibition of ecologically friendly vehicles through the heart of Australia’s iconic landscape.

Through its two constituent parts, the World Solar Challenge for solarcars and the Eco Challenge for production vehicles, the Global Green Challenge gives the world a sneak peek into the environmentally sustainable cars of the future.
Stretching 3,000km from Darwin to Adelaide, the Global Green Challenge puts technology, research, manufacturing advancement and sheer determination to the test as the cars of the future lead the drive towards a healthier future for the planet.
The Global Green Challenge comprises two categories:

  • The World Solar Challenge – for purely solar-powered vehicles
  • The Eco Challenge – for environmentally friendly production and experimental vehicles

Pre and post event public displays will be held in Darwin and Adelaide with an urban cycle for the Eco Challenge vehicles also to be conducted in the South Australian capital. An associated event will also be held in Alice Springs.

Join us in October by following the challenge online or en-route, and experience the adventure.
