Brunel Racing Team described the car's technical innovations as follows:

"We blend tradition with innovation to develop the first three-wheeled, asymmetric catamaran solar vehicle, measuring 6 square meters in area. In addition to harvesting solar energy, this vehicle is also equipped with an advanced feature that actively captures wind energy. To achieve this, the car features a retractable, angle-adjustable rear wing—specifically designed to efficiently collect wind power while ensuring stable straight-line performance."
