Welcome to the home of Éclipse!
Welcome to the Website of Éclipse, the solar car project of the École de technologie supérieure (ETS), located in Montréal, Québec, Canada. We're now hard at work on Éclipse VI, our sixth solar car prototype since we started solar raycing in 1992.
On this Website, we placed at your disposal all the available information we have on the present and past Éclipse prototypes, our team members and sponsors. Moreover, this Website will be updated as often as possible with our latest news in addition to the upcoming events we'll be appearing at. Stay tuned for information about everything from development news to competitions, tours and events!
Please do not hesitate to contact us with comments and any question you may have on any of the aspects of the team and its work!
