Project Arrow gets $5M of gov funding for zero-emission vehicles Canada grants $5M to create zero-emission autonomous vehicles A zero-emissions car designed by students The project is a great opportunity to create and test new designs and technology. Project Arrow invited university students to submit car design entries. A team of four students from Carleton University’s School of Industrial Design in Ottawa, Ontario, were the winners. They completed their design as a side-project in just 12 weeks during the COVID-19 pandemic....
