Welcome to Our EVolocity Journey!

We're a dedicated team of students working together to design, build, and race our own electric go-kart. Through the EVolocity program, we’re learning the ins and outs of engineering, teamwork, and sustainable technology—one lap at a time.
Our mission is to grow our skills, enjoy the process, and make the most of this incredible experience. Whether you’re here to follow our progress, support our efforts, or just share in the excitement, we’re glad to have you along for the ride!

Latest Updates

We've made great progress recently! Our welding skills have improved significantly thanks to a professional lesson from an ex-student, and our website is now live at https://www.popemobile.co.nz/. We've also secured accommodation for the competition weekend in Christchurch to ensure everyone is safe and well-rested. In addition, we're picking up a go-kart frame this week and have ordered all the cells for our custom battery, with the design for the battery casing underway.
