David Zhao's Concept

On Saturday the Aurora team had a productive session at its workshop.  Monash University Industrial Design graduate Ali, Swinburne University Product Design Engineering student David and Monash University Ph.D. candidate Damien discussed aerodynamic tradeoffs related to certain automotive styling elements.  Ali and David spent most of the day working on their clay styling scale models, while Damien provided advice on how their models could be changed to improve aerodynamic performance.

Meanwhile, Martin, Katrina and Andris discussed marketing proposals for Aurora Solaris, the team's new, practical two-seat solar EV concept in preparation for next week's meeting with Swinburne University students and staff.
