Overall, the team was satisfied with the results. Although the AEV took longer to complete the tests compared to other teams, the goal of minimizing energy usage was met by achieving a lower output than the majority of other AEV proposals. Furthermore, the team’s engineers are dedicated to further optimizing the weight and cost of the final vehicle. Other models have been proposed that reduce the capital cost of parts significantly and offer an entirely new vehicular design. Although this model is still in the early stages of development, P&C hopes it cam be a viable option for production one day.
