Appalachian State Solar Car Wins Again | Winston–Salem News

Appalachian State’s Team Sunergy just shattered records by winning the American Solar Challenge for the second time—this time with their brand-new, multi-passenger solar car, Autumn. After a grueling 1,800-mile journey from Minnesota to Amarillo, Texas, they earned a near-perfect 92.7 out of 100, proving their vehicle is the most energy-efficient and practical in the race. Designed over five years, Autumn even won the MOV Practicality Award, making it the closest thing to a real-world car in this competition. Now, Sunergy holds the historic title as the first team to win the multi-passenger class twice—a triumph that highlights relentless innovation and sets a new standard for solar-powered mobility.
