Help Us Put Israel on the Track in Europe’s Premier Solar Car Challenge
For the first time in history, an Israeli student team is preparing to compete in the iLumen European Solar Challenge (iESC), the world’s only 24-hour solar car endurance race, held at the legendary Formula 1 circuit in Belgium.
Teams from across Europe gather there to test the limits of solar-powered technology, innovation, and engineering excellence. This is not just a race, it’s a global platform that captures the attention of technology enthusiasts, industry leaders, and innovators worldwide.
Who Are We?
We are the Afeka Auto Club: a multidisciplinary team of 30 engineering students from Afeka College of Engineering in Tel Aviv, united by one ambitious goal: to design and build Israel’s next fully solar-powered race car - Orna 2.0.
Following the success of Orna 1.0, Israel’s first fully solar-powered vehicle built entirely by students, we are now developing the next generation of our solar race car.
Your support will help us:
• Complete the development of Orna 2.0 – our next-generation solar race car
• Represent Israel in an international engineering competition
• Give students real hands-on experience in advanced engineering and sustainable mobility
• Cover essential costs including materials, components, testing, and travel to Belgium
Be Part of This Journey
This project is powered by students, passion, and innovation, but we can’t do it alone.
Our team has already made remarkable progress: the chassis and core systems of Orna 2.0 are ready, and we are now entering the final stage of development. Your support will help us complete Orna 2.0 and put Israel on the track at one of the world’s leading solar car competitions.
Join our partners, EVR, Champion Motors, and IMCD and others, and help us proudly represent Israel at the iLumen European Solar Challenge in Belgium.
For contributions of ₪30,000 and above, we would be happy to schedule a personal meeting to discuss partnership, branding, visibility, and sponsorship opportunities.
