Efficycle - Two seater recumbent trike

“EFFI CYCLE” is a national-level competition in which we conceived, designed, and fabricated a three-wheel configuration vehicle powered by human and electric power that is capable of seating two passengers. We designed and developed this vehicle from scratch, and I took the responsibility of the design lead and the primary driver. The designed and fabricated vehicle must be aerodynamic, engineered for performance & safety, with ergonomic design to qualify for the technical inspection and be fit to race.

Efficycle is an annual event where engineers from all over the country design and fabricate a dual-seater trike, that will undergo a series of rigorous inspections, before being allowed to race. Each year the event takes place at Lovely Professional University (LPU), Punjab.

"EFFI-CYCLE is an initiative of SAEINDIA Northern Section with the objective of providing an opportunity for the students, to explore the “Environment-Friendly and Economical” solutions for the day-to-day mobility needs of people. The event task is to conceive design and fabricate a prototype of a three-wheel configuration vehicle, capable of seating two passengers and powered by human and-electric hybrid power." - SAE India.
