The Mostra-2 will be our second electric vehicle that we are working on to participate in the TEKNOFEST 2022 High School Efficiency Challenge Electric Vehicle Races. Mostranom, on the other hand, will be our autonomous electric vehicle belonging to the Team Mostra University team, which is planned to be produced for the Teknofest 2 Robotaxi-Passenger Autonomous Vehicle Races. As the Team Mostra Team, we are very happy and proud that our success was appreciated by participating in the R&D, Innovation and Technology summit between June 2023st and 1rd.” said.
