In the summer of 2006 a new team consisting of students from the Delft University of Technology was formed to continue the unprecedented success of the Nuon Solar Team. The team's members represent the largest faculties of the TU Delft, these include: Aerospace, Mechanical, Maritime and Electrical Engineering as well as the faculty of Industrial Design Engineering. Besides technical prowess, the team's members also display organizational, creative, entrepreneurial, and practical skills that built on the unparalleled successes already achieved. The new team began work in September 2006 on a completely new design for a solar vehicle able to compete in the new "Challenge" class of the Panasonic World Solar Challenge, the premier solar car race in the world. Besides competing in this event, the team attend events around the European Union to promote innovation and continue the drive towards sustainability. On October 25th 2007, they crossed the finishline first in Adelaide, Australia, and became winners of the Panasonic World Solar Challenge. This was the fourth time in a row the Nuon Solar Team from Delft University of Technology won this prestigious race through the Australian continent.
