shamecurls:What propels the shafts?? the keke has an electric motor connected to d battery and dat answers Ur question. And You can't classify dat as an engine because technically an engine is a device that burns or otherwise consumes fuel, changing its chemical composition. 1 Like |

shamecurls: The only function of an engine is to burn fuel and produce motion, this motion is then transmitted through the crankshaft to the tires. If a battery can power an electric motor to produce that motion an transmit same to the tires, you don't need engines. Shey you grab? |

ElectroCute: Your statement is outrightly false and used a wikipedia definition to back it up. There is nothing like "No Engine" when energy is transformed to Mechanical energy https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine |

There's something I have been trying to understand. If someone from Akwa does something good, he is called Akwa Ibomite, if he does something bad, he is called Calabar. Any idea? |

AnodaIT: ![]() So a battery powers the electric motor and transmits it to the crank shaft and the car moves..... lol You re a comedian! Do you know what they call gears in automobile? The electric motor also does that too? Lol Let me believe u re not an engineer. I have pardoned you. Also, your definition about an engine is outrightly wrong. Wikipedia will help https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine |

I see nothing new here or innovative. Every body knows a solar powered tricycle can be made, it's not rocket science. But the problem lies in when it comes to making a solar powered tricycle that is safe and cheap to manufacture by making every component yourself like a real engineer. Now if you can achieve that, that is true innovation. Any one can go on YouTube and watch videos on how to make a hydrogen powered car, but that doesn't make the person an inventor. This is a project just to score extra points ![]() 1 Like |

shamecurls: What I think he meant is that instead of fuel powered engine, it's solar powered. Even the solar is to charge the battery. 1 Like |

Whoever wrote this information was totally misinformed. I have no doubt this hasn't gotten to Finbarr. The project was a group project and not an Idea and effort of one person. I think credit should be given to other guys who I saw toil day and night to ensure the project was successful. They did a Wonderful job. I pray you guys head higher. 1 Like |

Good work, young man! The only issue is, 2 square meters can yield up to 250W of power in the early afternoon, engine would have to be at least 1 to 1.5 kW, meaning the batteries would have to be charged all day for 30-45 minutes ride. Still, good work! |
