The Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) has converted a fuel-powered Toyota Corolla into a fully electric vehicle.
The car, previously part of the Vice-Chancellor’s office fleet, was unveiled during the launch of the university’s first-ever TekAlumni Homecoming 2025.
According to university officials, the project is part of KNUST’s effort to promote innovation and practical research.
According to Pure FM, the conversion was led by a team of engineers and students to demonstrate the potential of locally driven solutions in clean energy.
