Do Right. Be Bright. Go E-trike!", generate 2D and 3D CAD drawings of the best aesthetic and functional design for the future Philippine E-trike look. Design should showcase a modern tricycle innovation that can hold a maximum of six (6) passengers excluding the driver. The top three (3) winners with the most aesthetic design shall receive P200,000 each.
