  • Abstract
    Many race cars were built as universities´ and high schools´ projects; however, the concept of solar cars have not been developed for consumers more often. RALOS project is about designing and building a theoretical model of a hybrid car using the best features while making the most optimal design decisions by evaluation the best existing cars´ technologies. In Ralos car, the latest technologies within a reasonable cost will also be included in addition to some of its limitation as a daily used car. Thus we developed a study that includes an overview on the electrical and mechanical system of the most optimal car´s system in terms of efficiency taking into consideration some of the existing newest possible technologies in the market as well as a financial analysis to estimate the car´s cost and to further optimize it as much as possible.
