Chittagong University (CU) has introduced six new electric cars to make it easier for students to get around campus in an environmentally friendly way. The new vehicles were officially launched today at 3:30 p.m. near the university’s Zero Point area by Prof. Dr. Md Kamal Uddin, CU’s Vice Chancellor.

This initiative follows an earlier launch in August, when CU Vice Chancellor Prof. Dr. Muhammad Yeahia Akhter unveiled the university’s first six e-cars. The goal of the program is to reduce transportation challenges for students while promoting sustainable and green mobility on campus.

"We have increased the number of e-cars for students' convenience. If needed, more vehicles will be added later. Areas like Forestry and Law Faculty, where e-cars did not operate before, will now be included in the routes. We've also directed that fares should not exceed Taka 10 per trip,' said Professor Dr. Md Kamal Uddin.
